Olha Kobylianska

The commemorative coin is dedicated to the 150th anniversary of birth of a renowned Ukrainian authoress, one of the most educated women of the 19th century who fought for the women`s rights and, by means of her works, according to Dmytro Pavlychko`s statement, `created an entire encyclopedia of the feminine soul`. Olha Yulianivna KOBYLIANSKA is an impressive figure in the Ukrainian prose, astute psychologistic writer, artist of a lyrically romantic turn of mind whose artistic legacy has enriched the spiritual treasury of our people.
