| Beschrijving keerzijde | The rectangular field presents a high-relief three-quarter facing bust of Polish Romantic painter Piotr Michałowski at left, depicted in period dress with a cravat, his features rendered with fine portraiture detail. Behind the bust, a sweeping pastoral landscape — evoking the artist's characteristic painting style — extends across the field, showing an open plain with figures and trees beneath an overcast sky. In the lower right corner, a painter's palette is rendered in pad-printed polychrome, displaying spots of red, yellow, green, and blue pigment with brushes. A black band along the lower margin carries the inscription 'PIOTR MICHAŁOWSKI' in raised lettering, while the dates '1800 – 1855' appear along the left edge of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Michałowski spent the 1830s in Paris partly in voluntary exile following the failed November Uprising against Russian rule, and it was there that he absorbed the Romantic equestrian tradition that would define his mature work. The NBP's collector series honoring Polish painters has consistently used pad printing — a technique that deposits a polymer-based image onto the coin's surface — to reproduce brushwork texture in a way conventional die work cannot approximate.
The pad-printed element on this issue is notoriously prone to abrasion, and even minor friction from improper handling leaves visible damage to the applied layer.
