20000 Armenian Dram Banknote (Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky)

20,000 Dram (Issued 2018-2024)

The highest denomination of the Central Bank of Armenia’s third series, first issued in 2018, the 20,000 Dram note honours Hovhannes (Ivan) Aivazovsky (1817–1900), the world-renowned Armenian-Russian Romantic marine painter. His finely engraved portrait — a distinguished elderly figure with a full white beard — appears on the front, set against a background drawn from his celebrated seascapes and rendered in a cool palette of pale aquamarine and grey-blue. The issuing authority, the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia, is inscribed in Armenian script along the upper border, with the denomination “20000 ԴՐԱՄ” in bold type. Printed by Giesecke+Devrient on the Hybrid substrate, the note carries intaglio portraiture together with a colour-shifting optically variable feature, an embedded security thread and fine guilloché work.

The reverse is dedicated to Aivazovsky’s legacy, depicting the monument to the painter that stands before the Aivazovsky Art Gallery in Yerevan, together with a panorama of Theodosia (Feodosia), the Crimean seaport where he was born and worked. Tall-masted sailing ships and a misty harbour recall the marine subjects for which he is famous, rendered in delicate pale-blue line engraving. The cool blue-grey palette continues from the front, with the denomination “20000” repeated in the corners and the Armenian denomination text printed in deep terracotta-red for contrast.
