Ukrainian Historical Art by Kyivan Artist Alexander Khomenko

Pen and Ink Drawings by Alexander Khomenko


Since my University of Toronto Slavic Studies course on The Origins of Russia and Ukraine covers Ukrainian Orthodox icons and Cossacks along with Ivan the Terrible and Putin, I went through some of the late Kyivan artist Alexander Khomenko's works that I still have on hand.

In the 1980s the artist worked in church restoration at Kyiv's Pecherska Lavra Monastery of the Caves and at churches in Tokmak, Zaporizhia, and Sevastopol.

Below are a few selections from his 1995-2008 pen and ink works.
