Miljenko Licul (6 August 1946 – 16 March 2009) was a Slovenian graphic designer of Croatian descent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Umrl je oblikovalec Miljenko Licul )(Slovenian)〕 He was one of the most prominent graphic designers in independent Slovenia. ==Life and work== Licul was born in the Istrian town of Vodnjan, which was then part of the Yugoslav occupation zone of the Julian March (now in Croatia). His parents were Istrian Croats. He moved to Slovenia in his youth and lived and worked there most of his life. He was a founder of the group ''Znak'', and leader of studios ''Zodiak'' and ''Diptih''. For some time, Licul taught typography at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana. Licul's work covers a wide spectrum of arts; from designing publications, posters and magazine covers to postage stamps and calendars. One of his most prominent career highlights was in 1991, when he won the contest for designing new Slovenian currency, the tolar. The banknotes, which were in circulation from October 1991 until the end of 2006, featured portraits of prominent Slovenian personalities, the work of painter Rudi Španzel. When Slovenia adopted the euro as the national currency, Licul designed the national side of Slovenian euro coins, together with Maja Licul and Janez Boljka.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Euro Coins - Bank of Slovenia )〕 Licul and Boljka designed tolar coins together, as well.〔〔http://www.evro.si/en/slo-and-euro/slovene-euro-coins/〕 Besides the national currency, Licul also designed several official documents, such as the Slovenian passport, identity card and health insurance card. His other works include the designing of a new graphic image for the Slovenian National Gallery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dnevnik - Umrl je Miljenko Licul )(Slovenian)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Miljenko Licul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
