Description: Canada 2016GEOMETRY OF ART - MAPLE LEAF$20 Pure 1 Oz Colored Silver Proof Coin Lines, shapes, patterns, and dimension: these fundamental concepts are at the heart of geometry, art, and design, forming an indisputable common bond between mathematical and artistic realms. As digital artists seek to recreate the physical world through dimensional images, modeling techniques based on geometric shapes have given way to this new visual style of low poly art. Created by Canadian artist Calder Moore, the reverse of this coin features an artistic representation of a Canadian forest in autumn, which provides a natural setting for Canada’s most famous emblem: the maple leaf. Multiple polygon shapes coming together here to form the mix of coniferous and deciduous trees on both sides of the river. A rich color gradient in the background recreates the fading sunset as it casts a golden glow on the fall foliage, while the use of rich color variants throughout the landscape alters our perception of shadow and light. The eye is naturally drawn to the two engraved maple leaves in the foreground, where extraordinary sculpting, cutting-edge technology and advanced finishing techniques showcase the individual polygons within each form. The geometric lines and corners lend themselves beautifully to recreating the maple leaf’s stem and serrated edges, as a gentle breeze brings both leaves tumbling onto the water’s surface to float above the rocky riverbed.Obverse: Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II of England by Susanna Blunt, in profile facing right.The coin comes in a typical for RCM maroon clamshell case lines inside with black cloth.THE COIN IS IN PERFECT MINT CONDITION AND COMES WITH ALL ORIGINAL MINT PACKAGING WITH COA #2523 CountryCanadaYear of Issue2016Face Value$20Metal.9999 Pure SilverWeight (gr)31.83Size (mm)40Mintage Limit 7,500FinishProof with ColorOGPYesCertificateYes (#2523)BUY WITH CONFIDENCE - MY 100% FEEDBACK IS THE GUARANTEE OF YOUR SATISFACTION!
