Banknotes of the pound sterling £10 note on 14 September 2017; these will be followed by the £20 note in 2020, and the £50 at a date after that. In April 2013, the Bank of England announced that its next planned new note issue, intended to be the £5 note in 2016, would feature former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The selection of Churchill to replace Elizabeth Fry raised some debate about the representation of women on British banknotes, with critics raising concerns that Bank of England notes would portray exclusively male figures, other than Elizabeth II who appears on every sterling banknote and coin.
Bust of Winston Churchill (Epstein) Bust of Winston Churchill (Epstein) Jacob Epstein's bronze bust of Winston Churchill was completed in 1947. Epstein was commissioned by the War Artists Advisory Committee to create a sculpture of former British prime minister Winston Churchill in August 1945, after the end of the Second World War and shortly after Churchill lost the 1945 UK general election. Two casts have been displayed in the Oval Office. Another remains on display in the atrium of Churchill College, Cambridge. Epstein applied to become a British official war artist after he was conscripted in the First World War, but his application was rejected.
