Object description
The drawing shows a cross-section of the projected church on Bohdanivka Street in Lviv (part of the modern Horodotska Street beyond the intersection with Lubinska and Kulparkivska Streets). Yevhen Nahirnyi designed the new large church in 1935. The building was to be located next to the wooden chapel of St. Andrew and St. Volodymyr, built in the first years after the First World War. The square neo-Byzantine building was to be symmetrical, with five domes surrounded by arcades. The architect proposed several project versions, differing in proportions, window shapes, and decorative elements. This facade drawing corresponds to a more elevated version in which an avant-corps accentuates the entrance, and rustication is used in the decoration. The cross-section was made through the main entrance and the altar area.
