| Reverse description | A dramatic low-angle perspective view of the Elizabeth Tower (commonly known as Big Ben) at the Palace of Westminster, rendered in selective colour with the Gothic Revival stonework highlighted in warm golden-yellow tones and the clock face accented in blue and gold. Foliage in muted green and yellow occupies the lower right field, evoking the surrounding Westminster landscape. The denomination legend FIVE POUNDS arches along the right side of the field in raised incuse lettering, while the engravers' initials LC·GD appear in the lower left field. The overall composition conveys a striking upward perspective characteristic of the architectural illustration style employed by the designers Laura Clancy and Glyn Davies. |
