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:

    Intellectuals can tell themselves anything, sell themselves any bill of goods, which is why they were so often patsies for the ruling classes in nineteenth-century France and England, or twentieth-century Russia and America.
    Lillian Hellman (1907–1984)
