Eliel Saarinen — already celebrated as an architect and far better known for Helsinki Central Station than for banknote work — designed this note during one of the most violent periods in Finnish history. The 1918 Civil War had split the country between Red and White factions, and the Bank of Finland was operating under White government control when this issue was produced. The choice of a domestic printer and a nationally prominent designer carried clear political weight at a moment when asserting independent institutional authority mattered enormously.
Saarinen designed and engraved the note himself, an unusual combination for any issuer. His involvement ended here — he emigrated to the United States in 1923 and never worked in Finnish currency design again.
