Reverse description A large, boldly modeled facing bust of the Dutch Golden Age master Rembrandt van Rijn dominates the central field, rendered with expressive chiaroscuro-inspired engraving that evokes the painter's characteristic use of light and shadow. Smaller vignettes drawn from notable works of Rembrandt's oeuvre are incised into the background on either side of the portrait. The inscription REMBRANDT / VAN RIJN appears in two lines within a recessed panel at the base of the design.
