Eighth banknote series, 1995
In selecting the personalities and their works to be depicted on banknotes, the Swiss National Bank considered multidisciplinary art forms, such as architecture, music, interpretative art and literature while taking into account Switzerland's linguistic and cultural diversity. Electronic image processing was used for the first time during the design process of the banknotes. The security concept employed progressed from the hidden security features used in previous banknote series to transparent ones.
