Object description

The drawing shows a perspective view of the church project for Deliatyn. It is a single-nave cruciform building with elongated rectangular babynets, facetted transept frames, and a semicircular apse. It is five-domed. The dome over the transept is large, with a polygonal section; four smaller ones are placed on the diagonals, with a Baroque bell shape with folds. The western wall of the babynets is completed by a pilastered pediment; the entrance is organised by a columned portico with a balcony on the second level. The project was never carried out (Lev Kh., Slobodian V., Filevych N. 100 Churches of the Nahirnyi family. Part Two: Churches of Yevhen Nahirnyi. Lviv, 2015. P. 125).
