Nil Khasevych (1905–1952) was a Ukrainian graphic artist and UPA propagandist who spent the final years of his life moving between bunkers in the Carpathians, continuing to produce woodcuts and prints for the underground resistance while Soviet security forces hunted him. He died in a bunker near Brody, never captured. Ukraine has issued commemorative circulation coins honoring figures of the anti-Soviet resistance with increasing regularity since the 2022 full-scale invasion — Khasevych's inclusion in that program is a pointed political act, not an aesthetic one.
