Famous artists - Antonín Dvořák:
The free cycle of half-ounce gold coins of the Czech
Mint, which commemorates important personalities of world history, presents its
first Czech - Antonín Dvořák. He joined the hall of greats in the year that
marked the 180th anniversary of his birth.
He was an unrivalled symphonist, creator of chamber
music, conductor and professor who raised a whole generation of followers. He
laid the foundations of Czech cantata and oratorio music and his operas have
become a treasure of national music and drama. His traditional yet modern work
introduced our culture far beyond the borders of the Czech lands... Antonín
Dvořák became a musical legend during his lifetime, and not only in his beloved
homeland - without exaggeration, he was adored by the whole world. His 9th
Symphony "From the New World", in which the composer captured the
atmosphere of the booming United States and the nostalgic homesickness, is one
of the most beautiful things ever composed, and it is no wonder that the
Americans, on whose soil it was written, consider the most famous Czech to be
their composer. "New World Symphony" even became the first song to be
performed after the Apollo 11 landing on the moon. Despite all his fame,
Antonín Dvořák remained a simple and humble man who loved his family and his
home above all else. It is not without interest that music was not his greatest
passion. "I would give all my symphonies if I invented the
locomotive," confided the genius composer...
The Gold Coin:
The reverse side of the $25 (Twenty Five Dollars - NZD) Coin, which is the work of the
medal maker MgA. Petra Čánská, bears the composer's portrait from the time of
his greatest fame.
The composition is supplemented with his autograph and the
name "ANTONÍN DVOŘÁK".
The obverse side of the $25 (Twenty Five Dollars - NZD) Coin is dedicated to Dvořák's most famous
opera - Rusalka - and presents a lake with waves formed by the stave and the
names of famous works: "NOVOSVĚTSKÁ, RUSALKA, ČERT A KÁČA, ARMIDA (NEW WORLD
SYMPHONY, RUSALKA, THE DEVIL AND KATE, ARMIDA)".
As this is a coin issued with a
foreign licence from the island of Niue, the obverse side still bears the
necessary attributes of that issuer, which are incorporated into the lunar disc
- the name and portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, the nominal value of "25 DOLLARS" and the year of issue "2021".
A pictorial certificate of authenticity is an integral
part of the coin, which is issued in a limited edition of only 200 pieces.
