Design

Canadian artist Emily Damstra presents the magnificent classic Canadian maple from the novel perspective of being at the bottom of the tree. Looking up past the massive gnarled trunk, thick branches reach upward and outward, making the canopy appear distant against the sky. The textural and tonal design of the trunk, branches and leaves help reinforce the image’s sense of height and depth.

The tree fills the entire reverse, also engraved with the word “CANADA,” the date “2013” and the face value of “20 DOLLARS.”
