| 裏面の説明 | A central intaglio vignette in blue presents three allegorical figures representing Science, Agriculture, and Commerce grouped around a throne; the figure of Science to the left is accompanied by a celestial globe and an open book, while Commerce to the right holds a caduceus and is seated beside sheaves of wheat, with the enthroned central figure raising a staff. Flanking text panels in letterpress on each side contain legal notice articles relating to the Banque de France. The numeral 5 appears in guilloche cartouches at the upper left and upper right corners. |

This issue dates from an extraordinarily compressed moment in French monetary history: the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War and the Paris Commune, during which the Banque de France had suspended specie payments and flooded circulation with small-denomination notes to compensate for the hoarding and disappearance of coin. The 5 Franc note was not a routine issue — it was a direct response to metallic currency vanishing from everyday commerce under wartime and then insurrectionary conditions.
Chazal was a painter by primary training, and Dujardin one of the more technically accomplished engravers working in Paris at the time. The collaboration was not unusual for Banque de France commissions of the period, which consistently drew on fine-arts talent rather than purely commercial printing houses.
Specie payments resumed in 1878, after which this series was progressively withdrawn.
