2023 $200 PURE GOLD COIN
PETIT HIBOU, BY JEAN PAUL RIOPELLE
Jean Paul Riopelle (1923-2002) drew wide acclaim for the abstract paintings that placed him at the cutting edge of several mid-20th-century modern art movements. Riopelle’s creative genius wasn’t limited to a single medium: in the 1960s, the Montréal-born artist dedicated himself to sculpture, creating works of art that underscored his connection to nature, which served as both a grounding force and muse. One of those bronze-cast sculptures, Riopelle’s Petit hibou, is rendered in Extraordinarily High Relief (EHR) on this coin crafted in gold sourced from Quebec mines. On the coin’s reverse, Riopelle’s sculpted work reaches an incredible relief height of over 6 mm, which further accentuates all the dimpled details that are attributed to the artist’s hand and creative vision.
Quebec-sourced gold. From the Royal Canadian Mint, each EHR tribute to Jean Paul Riopelle is crafted in gold sourced exclusively from Quebec mines, making it a fitting tribute to an artist who brought global attention to Quebec art.
Thanks to Extraordinarily High Relief (EHR), the sculpted owl soars to a height of over 6 mm above the coin’s surface — four times higher than an Ultra High Relief (UHR) coin.
A unique opportunity to add Riopelle’s art to your collection, this rare collectible has a limited mintage ofjust 250 coins.
Packaged in a wooden case with beauty box, each coin comes with a special insert and a certificate of authenticity.
*The ‘Riopelle100’ mark, created by Raphaël Melançon, appears on the coin courtesy of the Riopelle Foundation, in collaboration with which the coin was created.
*Petit hibou, circa 1970, cast iron 1989 and 2010. Original terracotta sculpture. Bronze, lost wax casting. 12.4 x 12.4 x 4 cm. © Estate of Jean Paul Riopelle / Copyright Visual Arts - CARCC (2023).
