Anna Ancher - Danish Thousand-kroner Bill

Danish Thousand-kroner Bill

Anna and Michael Ancher were featured on the front side of the DKK1000 bill which came into circulation on 25 November 2004 but has subsequently been replaced. The front of the banknote has a double portrait of Anna and Michael Ancher, derived from two 1884 paintings by Peder Severin Krøyer which originally hung on the walls in the dining room at Brøndums Hotel.

Famous quotes containing the word bill:

    Is a Bill of Rights a security for [religious liberty]? If there were but one sect in America, a Bill of Rights would be a small protection for liberty.... Freedom derives from a multiplicity of sects, which pervade America, and which is the best and only security for religious liberty in any society. For where there is such a variety of sects, there cannot be a majority of any one sect to oppress and persecute the rest.
    James Madison (1751–1836)
