Object description
The drawing depicts a plan of the foundations of a large stone church for the town of Turka in the Lviv oblast, which was never built. The drawing is divided into two parts: on the right is a plan made at the level of the foundation footing ("banquettes"). The church was designed in 1927, and most drawings, including this one, were made in 1934. The building is based on a square plan with a semicircular apse and eight columns supporting a large central dome in the interior. At the corners of the building are four more towers crowned with bell-shaped domes. Between the towers on three sides of the building are arcade porches with low columns. There are two versions of the building, which differ in decoration, including the decoration of the domes (Lev Kh., Slobodian V., Filevych N. 100 Churches of the Nahirnyi family. Part Two: Churches of Yevhen Nahirnyi. Lviv, 2015. P. 128).
