| Obverse description | A stylized female effigy, representing Italia, occupies the central field, her face rendered in a geometric, contemporary artistic style evoking Renaissance draftsmanship. She wears a crown and is surrounded by oak and olive branches, symbolic of strength and peace. The coin's surface is divided into geometric quadrants by intersecting lines, creating a structured compositional framework. The curved legend REPUBBLICA ITALIANA runs along the left and upper border, while the mint mark R and the engraver's name COLANERI appear to the right of the effigy. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a richly detailed depiction inspired by the work of Jacopo Tintoretto, showing a semi-nude female figure kneeling and draped in fabric, rendered in high relief with fine naturalistic modelling characteristic of the Venetian Renaissance. In the upper left, a framed vignette reproduces a Tintoretto landscape painting, evoking the master's atmospheric use of light. The denomination 20 EURO appears prominently in the upper central field, with the year 2019 inscribed to the left. The legend TINTORETTO runs vertically along the left border, while IL RINASCIMENTO is inscribed along the lower portion of the field. |
