| Opschrift voorzijde | УКРАЇНА 2000 2 ГРИВНІ (Translation: Ukraine 2000 2 Hryvni) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a three-quarter facing bust portrait of the celebrated Ukrainian folk painter Kateryna Bilokur, depicted in later life, draped in a traditional headscarf and quilted coat, holding a paintbrush in her right hand. The portrait is rendered in sculptural low relief with careful attention to facial detail and textile texture. The Cyrillic legend 'КАТЕРИНА' arcs along the upper left rim and 'БІЛОКУР' along the upper right rim, flanking the figure. The birth and death years '1900–1961' appear in two lines at the lower left of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kateryna Bilokur was a self-taught Ukrainian folk painter who spent most of her life in the village of Bohdanivka, largely unknown outside her region until the 1930s when her work finally reached wider audiences. She never received formal training and reportedly taught herself to paint using homemade brushes and pigments. Picasso, upon seeing her work at a 1954 Paris exhibition, is said to have remarked that she alone would be sufficient reason to know Ukraine.
This commemorative was issued as part of the NBU's ongoing "Outstanding Personalities of Ukraine" series, which launched in the late 1990s and consistently favored bimetallic and nickel-brass compositions for its 2-hryvnia denominations.
