Bank of England wants new face for 20-pound note

The Bank of England has asked the public to nominate who they would like to feature on the back of the future £20 note. This new banknote will be issued in 3-5 years, probably made of polymer and it will celebrate Britain’s achievements in the visual arts.

Visual artists include architects, artists, ceramicists, craftspeople, designers, fashion designers, filmmakers, photographers, printmakers and sculptors.  The Bank will not feature fictional or living characters, with the exception of the Monarch, who appears on the front of our notes.

Nominations can be send in until 19 July 2015.
