2014 $10 Tiffany Art 10th Anniversary Antique Silver Coin - The Baroque Dresden

The multiple award-winning Tiffany Art series celebrated its anniversary in 2014 with the 10th issue of the traditional two-ounce piece.

The Zwinger is a representation object of the Saxon Elector Augustus the Strong. The Prince King of Poland commissioned his court master builder, Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann (1662–1736) and sculptor Balthasar Permoser (1651–1732), with the design of a new location as the setting for courtly festivities and as the forecourt for his planned new palace. The two artists designed the Zwinger as an absolutely unique building complex: an almost quadratic courtyard framed by galleries, pavilions, terraces, balustrades, gates, statues, arches and fountains.

The latest Tiffany Art Edition shows two of the Zwingers' magnificent buildings: on the one side, the Kronentor with its onion-shaped dome, and on the other, the richly adorned Wallpavilion. Both structures are impressive examples of the great theatrics of Baroque. With their vast plasticity and the abundance of figures and ornaments, they are spectacular models for the detailed minting design of the Tiffany Art series.
