Taras Shevchenko 1960

Alla Horska's 1960 linocut, *Taras Shevchenko*, depicts the Ukrainian poet and artist against a black background. The bold, simplified forms of the image, created with a limited color palette, capture the essence of this cultural icon. The artist's bold use of contrasting light and dark enhances the symbolic nature of the work. The piece is a testament to Horska's skill in expressive printmaking, and her commitment to Ukrainian art and culture.
