The proof shows the work titled View and plan of Toledo, preserved at the El Greco Museum (Toledo). The painting offers a multiple perspective of the city, along with a number of allegories and a young man showing a plan, all depicted in El Greco's characteristic brush strokes. A detail from the painting is framed within the stamp, where St. Ildefonsus is seen to be receiving the chasuble from the Virgin.

The artist's proof and the 24-carat gold stamp covering a reproduction of the 999 thousandths silver stamp come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
