Motifs
The portrait of Thomasine Heiberg (after her second marriage Gyllembourg Ehrensvärd), née Buntzen, was painted in the 1790s by Jens Juel (1745-1802). Today she is probably best known as the mother of Johan Ludvig Heiberg – author of "Elverhøj", the Danish national play – and mother-in-law of the actress Johanne Luise Heiberg, who adorns the 200-krone banknote. The original is the property of The Museum of National History at Frederiksborg Castle.

The squirrel was reproduced from a watercolour and pencil sketch by the illustrator and architect Ib Andersen (1907-1969).
