The reverse side belongs to a faithful portrait of Max Švabinský.
The obverse side presents a perfect relief reconstruction of Švabinský's most famous painting entitled The Poor Region.
Max Švabinský was one of the most important Czech artists of all time. He was extremely skilled and hardworking. His artistic expression, which was based on the tradition of national realistic art, was emotionally and technically perfect.
He became famous for his paintings of landscapes and nature, portraits of great personalities, erotic motifs and banknotes. His work laid the foundations of 20th century modern Czech art and without exaggeration acquired national significance.
Each coin is accompanied by a purple catalogue card with a description of the coin and its plastic representation.
Silverum!
