| Reverse description | Colorized depiction of the Madonna and Child after an original artwork by American illustrator and Disney artist Eyvind Earle, rendered in a stylized, flat graphic manner characteristic of Earle's distinctive aesthetic. The Virgin Mary is shown in three-quarter bust, her eyes downcast in a serene, contemplative expression, draped in a green mantle edged in black over a cream garment adorned with delicate yellow foliage motifs, her long black hair flowing over her shoulders. The Christ Child, similarly depicted in stylized form and dressed in a green floral robe, is cradled against her, eyes closed in repose. A large golden halo radiates behind the Madonna's head against a richly patterned green background with scrolling floral decoration, evoking the iconographic tradition of Byzantine and medieval religious imagery. The artist's signature appears in the lower right field, and the design is enclosed within the same ornamental scrollwork border as the obverse. |
