Object description
A cross-section of the church project for Bohorodchany is shown. It is a brick building with three naves, four columns, one dome, and three apses. The entrance is through a columned portico crowned by a balcony on the second level. Above the crossing is a hemispherical dome, with four small low cupolas on the diagonals and two more similar ones above the side apses. The decoration is based on the Art Deco style, which is particularly evident in the curved shape of the pediments that complete the facades and the shape of the columns. The church was completed before 1934 and today (as of 2024) is dedicated to St. John the Theologian (Lev Kh., Slobodian V., Filevych N. 100 Churches of the Nahirnyi family. Part Two: Churches of Yevhen Nahirnyi. Lviv, 2015. P. 125).
