 Ukrainian
Folk Icons... From The Land of Shevchenko is a new full color
book. It is written by two of Ukraine's leading collectors/researchers
Lidia Lykhach and Mykola Kornienko. The book contains nearly
200 color illustrations of cottage/village icons from the
central regions of Ukraine - the most widely distributed and
popular saints and holy figures of the village calendar of
the last three centuries.
This is the first comprehensive scholarly treatment of Ukrainian
naive iconography from the end of the eighteenth to the beginning
of the nineteenth centuries. The book is in English and Ukrainian.
ArtUkraine has purchased the new book and we highly recommend
it. The book was published in Kyiv by RODOVID PRESS. Lida
Lykhach is the President of RODOVID PRESS and has published
many books and magazines about Ukraine over the past few years.
The book is available from ArtUkraine.com. Contact us at artukraine@voliacable.com
