The second slide shows the same type of coin in color, and I like
it more, tough it is actually a black and white picture that has
been colored by hand. Max Hirmer made the photograph during the
Second World War for his little book "Die schönsten Griechenmünzen
Siziliens" (The Prettiest Greek Coins of Sicily), which he also
wrote. I prefer this enlargement for its representation of feminine
beauty. I believe this photograph is a lasting masterpiece.
