The Three Graces [reverse]

Style of Niccolò Fiorentino

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sculpture engraved on a round, coin-like object. The sculpture depicts three human figures standing closely together, holding hands, with elongated and stylized bodies. The sculpture appears to be made of a brownish material, possibly bronze or a similar metal, and has a weathered and textured finish. The figures are raised against the surface, giving a slightly three-dimensional effect. There is an inscription etched along the edge of the coin.
