Saint Volodymyr Hill

Ivan Yizhakevych was not just a painter, but also a graphic artist and illustrator. His works in historical and religious painting had a significant impact both in his time and still do today. This widely known canvas is one such example. Here, one can observe not only realistic elements but also impressionistic moods.

"Volodymyrska Hill" is one of his most iconic works — and rightfully so, as the painting's monumental atmosphere is truly striking. Pure, natural colors, the setting sun, the reflection of its last rays on the water — all of it conveys the quiet calm of evening in a bustling city. The capital city where he lived, created, and which he loved.
