Ukrainian iconography, among other art forms, reflects the ideological trends of the past centuries to the greatest extent. Moreover, the imagery of sacred art is quite sensitive to the spread of cultural and ideological changes.
In the lecture, we will examine the most prominent monuments, analyze their origins, and delve into the cultural environment of previous eras. We will consider how the artistic language changed and what means the artists used to do so.
