Description:
Church of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God, Sukhodil village, Lviv district
Abstract:

The modern wooden church was built in 1928 by the carpenter-builder Vasyl Dmytriv according to the project of an architect Lev Levynskyy. The building impresses with the perfection of its forms and the pyramidal plasticity of the layout of the volumes. Here, tradition is harmoniously combined with modern creativity, the principles of Eastern and Western sacred construction are combined. Traditionally, the main log cabins are crowned by three domes, and large cupolas grow between the tops. The identity of the forms of the domes and cupolas creates the impression of a multi-tiered church. The interior decoration is distinguished by a holistic concept of creative design: the unpainted wooden timbers of the walls harmonize with the stylish carvings of the iconostasis, the altar and side altars, and other items of equipment, the author of which is the famous carver Andriy Sabaray. The icons of the iconostasis were painted by Anton Manastyrskyy.
