| Reverse description | Selective gold-gilt reproduction of Michelangelo's 'The Creation of Adam' from the Sistine Chapel ceiling, depicting the reclining figure of Adam at left with outstretched arm and the figure of God at right, rendered in high relief against a polished silver field. The central figures are rendered in contrasting gold gilding and silver, with the figure of God and surrounding angels on the right remaining in natural silver tone. A row of six blue Swarovski crystal insets is embedded along the upper portion of the design, with a further row of four crystals along the lower right area, adding a decorative gemstone element. The legend '500 YEARS SISTINE CHAPEL' appears along the upper edge and 'CEILING PAINTINGS BY MICHELANGELO' along the lower left, with the date '2008' at the lower right. |
