| Obverse description | Brown and ochre toned note with a central vignette of a traditional Latvian farmstead — a thatched-roof wooden homestead set beneath a large tree against a guilloche underprint incorporating Latvian folk art motifs. The denomination numeral '20' appears in large intaglio print at lower left, with the serial number printed twice in red at upper centre and lower right. The issuer inscription 'LATVIJAS BANKAS NAUDAS ZĪME' runs along the top margin, with 'DIVDESMIT LATU' in bold lettering across the lower portion and 'LATVIJAS BANKA' at bottom centre. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large geometric guilloche pattern rendered in a mosaic of brown, rust and cream tones, drawing on traditional Latvian woven textile designs. A vertical security thread with microprinting is visible through the centre of the note. The Latvian state coat of arms appears at lower right in intaglio, with the denomination '20' in large numerals at lower left, the issuer legend 'LATVIJAS BANKAS NAUDAS ZĪME' at bottom centre, and the print year '2004' below the coat of arms. |
