Banknotes for the Swiss National Bank
In 1908 the Swiss National Bank commissioned two designs for new banknotes from Hodler. Instead of portraits of famous men he chose a woodcutter (for the 50-franc note) and a reaper (for the 100-franc note); the designs were controversial, but both appeared in the 1911 Series Two.
