Object description

The main facade is from an unrealised stone church project for the village of Pyniany. The building has a cruciform floor plan with two sacristies. It has three portals, two of which are in the transept frames. It is three-domed, crowned by three onion-shaped cupolas. Semi-spherical protrusions complete the transept frames. The exterior decoration combines features of the neo-Byzantine and neo-Gothic styles, the latter manifested in filling the windows with tracery. Vasyl Nahirnyi designed the project. This drawing is probably a copy made by Yevhen Nahirnyi from his father's design.

Inscriptions

The lower right corner is stamped: "Plan Lviv, 9/ XI / 1911, valid for construction only in Pyniany", where the date and the word "Pyniany" are written in ink by hand.
