Depicts the painting "San Giorgio Maggiore with the Giudecca and the Zitelle" by Francesco Guardi. The country name above.

The painting shows a view across the Bacino di San Marco, looking towards the islands of San Giorgio Maggiore (on the left) and Giudecca (on the right). This view – with the church of San Giorgio Maggiore, designed by Andrea Palladio (1508-1580), as its focal point – is taken from the quayside of the mainland (the Riva degli Schiavoni) and represents one of the most popular scenes within 18th-century Venetian view painting. However, the painting is not topographically accurate and the view has been manipulated for artistic effect – thus the real subject of the painting is arguably the unique atmosphere of Venice. The composition exists in numerous versions.

Depicts a detail of Francesco Guardi's portrait as drawn from a painting by Pietro Longhi which is conserved at the Museum of Eighteenth-Century Venice. At the left of the portrait the value and the initial "m" of the engraver. At right the mintmark and the dates of the anniversary.
