| Reverse description | A masterfully rendered scene of an ironsmith at work fills the entire field. The bearded craftsman, depicted in three-quarter view and wearing a workman's apron, raises a heavy hammer above his head with his right hand while gripping a length of chain with tongs in his left, striking sparks from the anvil before him. A forge with open flames burns to his left, flanked by a workbench with a vise. Decorative wrought-iron scrollwork elements are displayed in the foreground and to the left, showcasing the craftsman's finished artistry. The engraver's initials appear as a small monogram in the lower centre of the field. |
