Information about Symbol: Libertas by Karl Schwenzer
Libertas by Karl Schwenzer
Libertas (Latin for Liberty) is the Roman goddess and embodiment of liberty. This rendering by Karl Schwenzer was created in 1879 for the redesign of the 5, 10 and 20 centimes (Rappen) Swiss coins which had a Coat of Arms of Switzerland on their obverse before. It depicts a female head looking right, with a ribbon in her hair, wearing a diadem with the text LIBERTAS on it. |
