| Reverse description | The reverse reproduces Eugène Delacroix's monumental 1830 painting La Liberté guidant le peuple in finely milled relief, with compositional emphasis placed on Marianne as the personification of Liberty, brandishing the tricolour flag, and the young Parisian street urchin Gavroche at her side. The architectural framework of the Musée du Louvre, in which the original work is permanently exhibited, is integrated into the design as one side of the pictorial frame, anchoring the artistic scene within its institutional context. The 'chefs-d'œuvres des musées' series hallmark stamp appears in the upper right, seamlessly incorporated into the composition. Surrounding the central image, the inscriptions record the title of the work, the name of the artist, and the year of issue, completing the decorative border in a manner consistent with the broader series aesthetic. |
