| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse presents a central rectangular vignette, framed by an elaborate ornamental border in intaglio, containing a reproduction of one of the celebrated Sigiriya fresco paintings — a female figure rendered in profile in warm terracotta and dark tones, holding a flower. The issuer's name in Sinhala, Tamil, and English is inscribed above the vignette within the frame, and the denomination in all three scripts appears below. The background carries a fine geometric guilloche pattern in pale peach tones, with the numeral '2000' at upper left and the printer's imprint 'DE LA RUE' at lower right. |

| Anmerkungen |
The 2000 Rupee denomination was introduced as part of Sri Lanka's 2005–2006 series during a period of acute fiscal pressure — the December 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami had devastated the country's coastline and forced emergency reconstruction spending that stretched government finances considerably. A high-denomination note of this value was a practical response to inflationary pressure on everyday transactions rather than a symbolic gesture.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement with Sri Lankan currency printing stretches back decades, making this a continuation of a long commercial relationship rather than a new contract. The security package on this issue is notably modest for the denomination — thread and watermark only, without the optically variable devices that appeared on contemporaneous high-value notes from comparable economies.
