29 March 2007, 14:58Greek Catholics create iconographic image of Yuschenko - newspaper
Moscow, March 29, Interfax - An artist in Lvov, by commission from Greek-Catholic priest Vasily Pantelyuk, has depicted Ukrainian President Victor Yuschenko sitting on clouds, with the Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir and Princess Olga standing on his right and left.
The Ukrainian Segodnya (Today) newspaper has reported that a little lower on the same icon-like canvas there is another image of Yuschenko sitting now on a throne and holding a club in one hand and a vessel with a poison in the other, believed to be used to poison him during his presidential election campaign.
Spread above the throne is the revolutionary ‘orange’ Maidan square, picturing in the forefront the self-proclaimed Patriarch of Kiev, Philaret Denisenko, together with leader of the Ukrainian Greek Catholics Lyubomir Husar, as well as Yulia Timoshenko, Anatoly Kinakh, Alexander Moroz and other Ukrainian politicians.
‘It is so heartful that one can even pray at it’, Father Vasily said pleased with the execution of his design. |
