L'opera

On the reverse of Te deum there is a boat – symbolizing the legend of the arrival of the Saint Devota – and Francesco Grimaldi, the first ruler, who conquered Monaco by disguising himself as a monk. These two symbols are protected by the hands of God. The dolphins, the geese and the dove represent the smartness, the alertness and the peace always had in the reign.
