Art historian Waldemar Deluga will discuss important 17th-century woodcut prints related to the monastery of St. Catherine in Sinai, Egypt. These works of art are included in the exhibition Printing Icons: Modern Process, Medieval Image on display at the Icon Museum and Study Center. Made in Lviv, one of the most beautiful cities in Central Europe, by Ukrainian artists, they are among the most rare examples of prints created in Eastern Christianity.
