Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse reproduces a detailed section of Gustav Klimt's celebrated 1907–1908 painting 'The Kiss', rendered across the full rectangular surface of the coin with vivid color application. The depicted portion features the richly ornamented robes of the embracing figures, dominated by geometric black and gold rectangular motifs on the male figure's garment and swirling floral and circular patterns in warm gold tones throughout the field. A cluster of red, blue, and multicolored flowers is prominently rendered in the lower-central area, characteristic of Klimt's Symbolist and Art Nouveau style. The polychrome enamel or color-printing technique faithfully captures the gilded, mosaic-like quality of the original masterwork.

Aanvullende informatie

Niue became a favored issuer for high-end collector pieces because its status as a New Zealand realm territory gives it legitimate coinage authority while imposing almost no constraints on design or format — a arrangement that suits European fine-art licensing deals particularly well. The Klimt series of which this is part commissioned reproductions of works from the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna, which holds the original 1907–08 oil-and-gold-leaf canvas.

The 70g fabric places this squarely in the larger-format art coin category that Austrian Mint and its competitors were aggressively developing through the mid-2010s. Mintage for the series was capped at 999 pieces per issue.
