  Icon painting, the ultimate expression of Orthodox Christian art, reached its zenith in Ukraine between the 11th and 18th centuries. This book spans the entire period, showing the development of the style. The Ukrainian icon is a surprising synthesis of the traditions of Eastern Byzantine art and the stylistic characteristics of Russian icon painting. The introduction of this book explains the stages of development of icon-painting over five centuries in Ukraine’s major Centres of art - Kyiv, Chernihiv, Transcarpathia, Galicia, and Volhynia - and discusses the life and work of the masters of icon-painting. Despite the strict stylistic considerations imposed by the genre, Ukrainian icons display a striking range and variety of backgrounds and contexts. The author has been awarded the Ukrainian Medal of Arts, the Order of Princess Olga.

  A luminous story of loss and resilience, Lightkeeper captures acclaimed photographer Stacy Bass's personal journey through grief—and the art of keeping her parents' legacy alive through memory and photography. 
   
   
   
  In 1995, when a tragic seaplane accident on Block Island claimed her father's life, Bass's world shattered. She began to write as a way to process her excruciating grief, while gathering the pieces of his life through collected photographs. Some twenty-five years later, her mother was diagnosed with, and ultimately died from, pancreatic cancer after a one-year battle against that harrowing disease. During her mother's illness, Bass created a living tribute of images and words that built a community of support around her mother when she needed it most. 
   
   
   
  By collecting and sharing photographs of her parents, Michael and Jessica Waldman, Bass recognized how photographs serve not merely as records but as powerful portals into memory—gateways to the stories that exist just outside the frame. Filled with stunning prose, this evocative memoir reveals how Bass became the "lightkeeper" of her family's legacy, preserving their stories for future generations. For anyone who has loved deeply and lost tragically, Lightkeeper offers both solace and inspiration—reminding us that the light of those who have been lost always endures.

  Architecture - The Role of...

  Architecture serves as the backbone of urban development, influencing not only the physical layout of cities but also the cultural, economic, and social dimensions of urban life. From towering skyscrapers to public parks, architectural design is integral to shaping how people live, work, and interact in urban spaces. The built environment defines a city's identity and plays a crucial role in determining its functionality and sustainability. 
  Urban development encompasses the transformation of cities into thriving hubs of activity, and architecture provides the structural framework for this process. It facilitates the efficient use of land and resources while addressing the challenges of population growth, housing shortages, and environmental degradation. Through thoughtful planning and innovative design, architects have the power to create spaces that accommodate the needs of diverse populations, foster community interaction, and encourage economic growth. 
  Architecture also influences how people experience and perceive urban environments. The design of streetscapes, public squares, and transit systems can enhance connectivity and accessibility, making cities more livable and appealing. Iconic structures, such as bridges or cultural institutions, often become symbols of a city’s character and aspirations. For instance, the Eiffel Tower in Paris or the Burj Khalifa in Dubai not only contribute to the urban landscape but also serve as global landmarks that attract tourism and investment.
