| Reverse description | The reverse reproduces Eugène Delacroix's celebrated 1830 painting La Liberté guidant le peuple, with the composition centered on the allegorical figure of Marianne bearing the tricolour flag, accompanied by the street urchin Gavroche. The engraving faithfully captures the dynamic, Romantic-style composition of the original canvas held at the Musée du Louvre, whose architectural facade forms an integral element of the surrounding frame design. A 'Chefs-d'œuvres des Musées' cartouche is positioned in the upper right field, functioning as the series hallmark. Surrounding inscriptions name the artist, the work, and the year of issue, arranged decoratively along the border in Latin script. |
