| Obverse description | Detailed relief depiction of the interior of a historic theatre, rendered in a perspective view showing the ornate proscenium arch, tiered balconies with decorative railings, and an elaborately painted ceiling with rosette motifs. The stage opening is rendered with a mirror-polished proof field to simulate the dark void of the stage. In the lower portion of the field, the state inscription RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA 2021 and the denomination 20 ZŁ appear in bold raised lettering, accompanied by the Polish crowned eagle emblem to the right. |

| Reverse description | Bust-length portrait of Gabriela Zapolska facing slightly left, depicted in period Edwardian attire with a large decorative hat adorned with floral ornamentation atop her coiffured hair. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field and is framed by sinuous Art Nouveau-style floral motifs rendered in selective colour colouring in tones of purple, blue, and gold, evoking the aesthetic of the Young Poland movement. The legend GABRIELA ZAPOLSKA appears in elegant serif lettering along the right border of the rectangular flan. |
