2016 Canada $20 Geometry In Art - The Polar Bear Fine Silver (No Tax)

2016 $20 The Polar Bear Geometry In Art Fine Silver Coin (TAX Exempt) 148062

Lines, shapes, patterns and dimension: these fundamental concepts are at the heart of geometry, art and design, forming an indisputable common bond between mathematical and artistic realms. As digital artists seek to recreate the physical world through dimensional images, modelling techniques based on geometric shapes spawned an innovative new visual style: low poly art. This eye-catching five-coin series utilizes this art style to present a contemporary and highly artistic interpretation of Canada's most famous icons, continuing with the polar bear.
