The motifs on the back depict Faroese
landscapes drawn by two renowned local artists. Janus Kamban (left)
a
pioneer sculpture was born in
Tórshavn in 1913 and studied in Denmark. When he finished his studies after World War
II he returned to the Faroes. Kamban then began to organize local art
exhibitions which contributed to the newfound popularity of art in the
Faroes. |
