| Reverse description | The reverse features a colour-printed reproduction of the 1489 devotional panel painting 'Enthroned Madonna Nursing The Child' by Maestro dei Polittici Crivelleschi, occupying the left portion of the square field. The Virgin Mary, draped in a deep blue robe adorned with gold floral motifs, is depicted seated on a throne with a golden background, her hands raised in prayer as the Christ Child nurses at her breast. To the right, against a dark polished field, two finely sculpted silver roses in high relief are rendered on a stem with leaves, adding a sculptural three-dimensional contrast to the colourised painting. |
