A young figure stands in a green, flowering field, holding a golden coin up in both hands and studying it closely, as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. Trees and a plowed field stretch behind, and mountains rise in the distance. The Page is completely absorbed. It's a picture of a student's focus: curiosity about the practical world, and the patience to learn how it works from the ground up.
