Roman Selsky is a central figure of high modernism in Ukraine and the founder of the modern Lviv school of painting. He worked in the fields of easel and graphic art. The author's artistic style reflects the entire evolution of European modernism, from impressionism to abstraction.
Roman Selsky often complements the majestic Carpathian landscapes with various objects of folk life, creating a kind of "ethnographic portrait." Wooden church and a candlestick show a unique Hutsul flavor, symbolizes an invisible human presence, and fills the picture with a sense of warmth and tranquility.
