| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed relief composition depicting multiple characters drawn from Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev's celebrated short story collection «A Sportsman's Sketches», with the hero-narrator prominently placed at the centre of the scene. The figures are rendered in a naturalistic, literary-illustrative style befitting the subject matter. Along the lower portion of the field, Turgenev's facsimile signature «Ив. Тургенев» is inscribed in cursive script, flanked by the birth and death years «1818» and «1883». The composition was engraved by Alexander Vasilyevich Baklanov and Alexander Nikolaevich Bessonov. |
