| Reverse description | The reverse presents a three-quarter portrait of Belgian Surrealist painter Paul Delvaux, depicted in a contemplative downward gaze as if absorbed in his work, rendered in finely detailed high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. In the background to the upper right, a classical architectural facade — evocative of the neoclassical structures frequently depicted in Delvaux's paintings — is rendered in lower relief, lending depth and artistic context to the composition. The legend 'PAUL DELVAUX' is inscribed in bold raised capitals along the lower portion of the field, accompanied by the Royal Mint of Belgium privy mark to the right. |
