| Reverse description | Highly detailed relief depiction of the western facade of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris in its restored state, rendered across the full flan in an architectural elevation view. The three Gothic portal bays at the base are shown with pointed arches, tympana, and richly carved decorative elements. Above the portals, the Gallery of Kings frieze and the ornate central rose window with its tracery are prominently featured, flanked by lancet windows. The upper register shows the two square bell towers with their decorative arcading, and the restored central flèche (spire) rising between them. The flan itself is shaped to echo the silhouette of the cathedral's roofline, with the irregular upper edge mirroring the towers and spire. |
