20 euro – Elly Heuss-Knapp 75 Years of Mothers' Convalescence Organisation

The motif by artist Susanne Hopmann from Weimar shows a portrait of Elly Heuss-Knapp in three-quarter profile, almost the size of a coin, sensitively executed and modelled in detail. It is complemented by the logo of the Mothers' Convalescence Organisation and the anniversary number “75”. The sitter's expression, which has been realised with great artistic mastery, radiates openness, empathy and strength. The typography is skilfully based on fonts from the founding period of the Müttergenesungswerk. The dignified design of the eagle on the value side is analogous to the portrait on the portrait on the obverse is also positioned in the centre, surrounded by the European stars.
