​Meeting of the Art History Club

On April 1, 2025, a meeting of the Art History Student Group took place. During the session, a presentation was delivered by Viktoriia Stasenko, a fourth-year student of the Faculty of History, titled “Restitution of Cultural Property: On the Issue of Returning Church and Museum Artifacts of Ukraine Removed in the 1920s – Early 1930s.”

The presenter provided a thorough analysis of the removal of church and museum valuables, focusing on the reasons and methods of confiscating cultural property during the 1920s and early 1930s, offering a quantitative overview of the artifacts, and highlighting the processes of identifying and returning historical and cultural assets to Ukraine. All questions posed by the audience were answered comprehensively.

We thank all participants for the engaging discussion and wish Viktoriia continued success in her further research.
