Large and small state emblems of the Ukrainian People's Republic 1918

"Large and small state emblems of the Ukrainian People's Republic" by Vasyl Krychevsky (1918) depicts two versions of the Ukrainian national emblem, the Tryzub. The large version features a more ornate, intricate design with a stylized wreath, while the smaller version utilizes a simpler, more stylized wreath. Both emblems showcase the Tryzub, an ancient symbol representing the Ukrainian people, highlighting its importance in establishing a national identity during the Ukrainian Revolution. Krychevsky's work reflects the artistic trends of the time, combining traditional Ukrainian folk motifs with a modern aesthetic.
