It displays affluence, splendor, and motion. The 2009 issue of the Tiffany Art Series highlights the Baroque style of architecture by depicting an illustrious example of Baroque art.

The obverse of the coin provides an artistic insight into the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles while the reverse showcases the Fountain of Parterre d'eau with the front gardens of the palace serving as a backdrop.
