The book, using the work of four prominent masters of Ukrainian Baroque graphics of the 17th and early 18th centuries - Oleksandr Tarasevich, Master Ilya, Leonty Tarasevich and Ivan Shchyrsky - highlights the characteristic features of one of the world's artistic styles of the Enlightenment era - the Baroque style.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, Ukraine acquired a unique experience among the countries of Central and Eastern Europe in the organic union of Western European variants of the Baroque style with Ukrainian artistic traditions, and in a broad sense - the rapprochement of Orthodox and Catholic aesthetics in works on religious and secular themes.
The author examines in detail the phenomenon of Ukrainian Baroque, determines its essential and formal features in comparison with the autochthonous Baroque style in the art of Western countries. Over 200 illustrations of various types and genres of engraving provide an idea of Ukrainian Baroque engraving, in which, in addition to the four most prominent masters studied, dozens of other engravers worked during this period.
