| Reverse description | The reverse depicts an open book rendered in oxidized silver, representing the Barkalabaŭski Irmologion, a historically significant 17th-century liturgical chant manuscript. The left page shows blank musical stave lines in relief, while the right page displays an intricately detailed title page of the manuscript, populated with miniature sacred figures, architectural vignettes, and Cyrillic text in multiple registers, faithfully reproducing the illuminated appearance of the original codex. Above the open book, two bowing angelic figures flank a small depiction of a church, rendered in fine engraving. Decorative scrollwork borders frame the lower portion of the design. The inscription 'БАРКАЛАБАЎСКІ ІРМАЛОЙ' is incused or engraved along the lower rim within a rectangular cartouche. |
