| Reverse description | The reverse depicts an elaborate operatic stage scene rendered in high relief, with draped theatrical curtains framing the composition at the top and sides. At left, costumed operatic figures enact a dramatic scene before classical architectural columns, while a group of performers and soldiers occupies the background in relief. In the lower right foreground, a full-color applied insert portrays a man and a woman in an intimate embrace, kissing, in period costume, representing characters from Bizet's opera Carmen. The comedy and tragedy theatrical masks appear at lower left alongside the inscription GRAND OPERAS, with the title CARMEN in bold lettering along the upper border and the year 2011 in the lower right field. |
