| Reverse description | The reverse depicts, in high relief, a long-bearded elderly male figure seated and playing a harp, accompanied by a seated young woman to his left who holds fruit in her lap, her upper body partially draped. The two figures are rendered in a Neoclassical allegorical style, symbolising poetry and abundance. A two-line legend in the exergue below reads FRA KUNSTFORENINGEN I KIÖBENHAVN. |
