The new book by the well-known researcher of Ukrainian decorative and fine arts, Professor Halyna Stelmashchuk, is dedicated to the folk costumes worn by Ukrainians of ethnographic groups: Boyky, Lemky, Hutsuls, Pokutians, Bukovynians in the Carpathians. It has many similarities with the costumes worn throughout Ukraine, but due to climatic, economic, social conditions, cultural relations with neighbouring states, over the centuries, the costumes of Ukrainians in the Carpathians have developed their own distinctive local features, which are distinguished by their colourfulness, decoration, method of wearing, and the fact that on holidays they can still be seen on carriers, especially in the Hutsul region. The book will be of interest to scholars, artists, students, pupils, tourists and anyone interested in the history, culture and art of the Ukrainian people.
