The series includes a total of six plates with motifs taken from some of the most beautiful and famous places in the world. White porcelain plate with decorations in various shades of blue. Each plate was produced in limited quantities only and exclusively in the year shown on the plate itself and production ended at the end of the year with the destruction of the original shape which made it impossible to reproduce. As a guarantee of authenticity, the plate bears the Bing & Grøndahl mark with the three towers, inspired by the coat of arms of the city of Copenhagen, and the initials of the painter who created the unique illustration of the plate. The plate measures 18 cm. in diameter and on the back it has two holes made by Bing & Grøndahl during production so that it can be hung.
