Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (March 5, 1696 – March 27, 1770), was an Italian painter and printmaker from the Republic of Venice who painted in the Rococo style, considered important member of the 18th-century Venetian school. He was prolific, and worked not only in Italy, but also in Germany and Spain. The obverse of the 2-euro coin, depicts the moment when the angel sent by God rescues Hagar and Ishmael who had lost their way in the desert, pointing to a spring of water.
The detail is taken from the painting “Hagar and Ishmael”, one of Tiepolo’s absolute masterpieces and is kept at the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, an important Venetian brotherhood.

Jan van Eyck (c. 1390 – 1441) can undoubtedly be called a pioneer. With his brushstroke and translucent oil painting technique, he was innovative and achieved breathtakingly good results. The realism of his works, the sense of detail, the perfection of the compositions and the mastery of colors amaze the world. He was also one of the first artists to add a signature to his paintings, which was very unusual at the time. Only a few dozen of his paintings are known to have survived. Eyck’s two works have been used in the design of the coin card – the artist’s supposed self-portraits “The Man in the Red Turban” on the front and a fragment from the altarpiece “The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb” on the back.
