Object description

A longitudinal section of the church is depicted. It is a single-nave brick building with a transept, a rectangular nave, and a small sacristy. A dome topped with a hemispherical cupola rises above the transept. It is decorated in the neo-Byzantine style: the facades have thin arched recesses, and the cornices are decorated with lesenes. The corners of the building are accentuated by thin towers in the thickness of the wall, square at the bottom and octagonal at the top. This is a typical example of a small village church by Vasyl Nahirnyi, and this drawing is probably a copy made by Yevhen Nahirnyi. The date of the drawing is unknown, and the project was never realised (Lev Kh., Slobodian V., Filevych N. 100 Churches of the Nahirnyi family. Part One: Churches of Vasyl Nahirnyi. Lviv, 2013. P. 128).
