Embassy of Ukraine in D.C. hosts farewell exhibit of Krychevsky art

Ambassador Anton Buteiko on March 10 welcomes invited guests to a farewell exhibit of oil paintings and watercolors by Mykola Krychevsky, part of a 112-work collection donated to five museums in Ukraine by Kateryna Krychevsky-Rosandich. The collection was exhibited on February 20-March 7 at The Ukrainian Museum in New York. Born in Kharkiv in 1898, Mykola Krychevsky settled in Paris in 1928 and spent most of his creative years in France. He died in 1961. Prior to Mrs. Krychevsky-Rosandich's donation, very few of this noted artist's works found their way back to his homeland.
