The Zhovkva Iconostasis, painted by Ivan Rutkovych between 1697 and 1699 for the Basilian Monastery in Zhovkva
The National Museum (Lviv, Ukraine)
One of the largest and finest surviving Ukrainian Baroque iconostases (10.85 × 11.87 m)
Unusually consists of seven tiers instead of the more common five.
82 icons survive today; at least six others are known to have been lost.
Signed twice by the artist and dated 1697, 1698, and 1699.
Features a rare additional tier of scenes thematically linked to the main icons.
Includes a distinctive Sunday–Pentecostal tier, characteristic of the Zhovkva school of icon painting.
Incorporates imagery inspired by Western European engravings, reflecting artistic exchanges between East and West.
Contains the only known Deësis with both St. Constantine the Great and St. Volodymyr the Great.
The centurion Longinus in the Crucifixion group is believed to bear the features of King Jan III Sobieski.
Gives unusual prominence to St. John the Baptist, whose image appears in multiple tiers, including the prophetic register where he is rarely depicted in Ukrainian iconostases.
Considered a masterpiece of the Zhovkva school and one of the finest examples of early Baroque sacred art in Ukraine.
Preserved in the National Museum in Lviv since 1937 and fully restored between 2007 and 2011.

This extremely detailed 19th-century icon depicting various religious scenes is a miniature representation of the traditional icon screen, also known as the iconostasis, which is used to separate the nave from the sanctuary in Russian Orthodox churches. The icon features six registers separated into smaller images of the prophets, saints, and church feasts. The scenes of the Synaxis of the Archangels, the Pokrov of the Mother of God, the Trinity, the Beheading of St John the Forerunner, the Dormition, and the image of St. Nicholas are placed between the Deacon's Doors. The main Orthodox church feasts can be seen in the second register. As for the compositional center of this antique piece, it is reserved for the image of Christ Enthroned. The icon is currently part of a private collection located in Germany.
