<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Zeplyn, post: 1085695, member: 28776&quot;]While I have only been exposed to Banknotes for a short while, I have come upon a question that some of you may be able to help me with.</p><p>If you look up the definition of Vignettes you will see that it means to decorate or something that may be written on a vine or leaf.</p><p>So why does everyone hear call the central figures vingnettes? Or am I just getting this confused?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I suppose the &quot;portrait&quot; of the person on our banknotes is often called a vignette which is indeed not the case. So which is it? Is the vignette the decorated parts of a banknote or the entire engraving on the banknote? I am curious to hear what you all have to say.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
