Design: The reverse design by Canadian artist Elizabeth Sim is filled with all the warmth of a summer day, as it speaks of a personal connection with nature. The cottage setting is a familiar one to many Canadians; stretching across the entire reverse, the borderless background image creates the feeling of standing at the water’s edge, looking out at a dock and the kayak that awaits a late afternoon excursion. While Texturized Colour technology sets it apart from its surroundings, the easel-mounted canvas is positioned in a way that suggests the viewer is in fact the artist who has captured this idyllic setting on canvas. The use of Canvas Effect technology adds yet another touch of realism by re-creating the characteristic surface texture of a finished painting, such as the brushstrokes and the fibres of the canvas.
Packaging: The coins are encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian maroon clamshell case. It is protected by a black beauty box.
