Object description
According to the russian-language inscription on the back of the photograph, made in blue ink, it depicts an episode from the work process – the creation of monumental paintings on the premises of the Peasant Sanatorium named after the All-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee (VUTsVK) on the Khadzhybei Estuary near Odesa (1927–1929). The signatures of the depicted persons are provided in accordance with the inscription on the back (made by a currently unidentified person). In the image, four people on two scaffoldings (three on the left and one on the right) perform decorative paintings on the ceiling (stylised classical ornaments). Another group of artists is painting in the gap between the windows (the darkness of the photograph does not allow us to identify what is depicted there). In the depths of the composition on the wall, there is a part of the drawing of the future mural, which, in one of the groups, depicts a full-length portrait of Taras Shevchenko (there is a similarly styled drawing by Mykhailo Boichuk, probably made in the early 1910s, kept in the Gallery).
