| Reverse description | A full-colour reproduction of Edvard Munch's celebrated 1895 painting 'Love and Pain' (also known as 'Vampire') fills the reverse field, depicted here via a coloured agate stone insert set into the silver planchet. The composition shows a red-haired woman bending over a man in a melancholic, enveloping embrace, her hair cascading around his bowed head against a dark, atmospheric background. The image faithfully captures the expressionist tonality and emotional intensity of Munch's original work. The artist's signature E. Munch appears in the lower portion of the design. |
