| Reverse description | A highly detailed anthropomorphic crescent moon dominates the central field, rendered in high relief with a naturalistic human profile facing right emerging from the illuminated crescent, while the shadowed portion of the lunar surface is intricately engraved with realistic crater topography. Encircling the central motif, a series of constellation patterns formed by eight-pointed stars connected by lines fills the surrounding field, evoking the celestial firmament. The overall composition is executed in antiqued finish, enhancing the sculptural depth of the design and lending a classical, celestial atmosphere to the piece. |
