The Gothic Revival architectural detail of the Houses of Parliament is rendered with fine line engraving across the middle ground. The inscription 'BIG BEN' appears in the upper field above the architectural scene. The date '1994' is engraved in the exergue below the river scene, separated from the main design by a faint ground line. |
