Motifs
The portrait of the sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen was reproduced from a painting by C.V. Eckersberg, executed in Rome in 1814. On the right-hand side of the banknote is a picture of Bertel Thorvaldsen's marble sculpture "the three Graces", now found at Thorvaldsens Museum in Copenhagen. This was not the first time Bertel Thorvaldsen's portrait was used for a Danish banknote. The first instance was the 500-krone banknote issued in 1875.
The motif on the reverse shows the town of Kalundborg seen from the fjord, drawn by the illustrator and architect Ib Andersen (1907-1969).
