The Mint says about this coin:

Our superb, ornately embellished coin is not just a miniature replica of the famous work of art by Stanisław Wyspiański. The painting is set in a broader context of pre-war Cracovian bohemia. An empty frame depicted in the obverse symbolically reflects the loss of this important artwork. Lost work of art immortalized in pure silver! Elaborate design – selective gilding, high-end digital printing, elegant SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS Limited mintage – only 450 pcs! Specially designed presentation case “Double Portrait of Eliza Pareńska” was owned by Zofia and Tadeusz Żeleńscy. It is an extraordinary painting, in which Wyspiański tried to capture the passing time. He depicted his model in a two-fold sense. At a first glance both portraits are the same, but then it turns out that in the first one the girl is well-rested, whereas in the second – her face is tired and drowsy. We can find the same parallel when looking at the roses surrounding Eliza Pareńska.
