| Reverse description | The entire reverse is occupied by a full-bleed allegorical vignette executed in a sketchy lithographic style with heavy cross-hatching and dark tonal contrasts. To the left, a silhouette of Speyer Cathedral rises against a murky sky, while in the foreground a figure seated in a boat reaches toward a group of crowned and robed imperial figures gathered on the bank to the right. A three-line verse inscription in German appears along the lower margin. |
