This weekend, Ukrainians all over the world honour Taras Shevchenko, Ukrainian poet, writer, bard, artist, public and political figure, as well as folklorist and ethnographer, also well known for many masterpieces as a painter and an illustrator.
Taras Shevchenko (March 9, 1814 – March 10,1861) His literary heritage is regarded to be the foundation of modern Ukrainian literature and, to a large extent, the modern Ukrainian language.
He was a member of the Sts. Cyril and Methodius Brotherhood and an academician of the Imperial Academy of Arts. In 1847, Shevchenko was convicted for writing in the Ukrainian language, promoting the independence of Ukraine, and ridiculing members of the Russian Imperial House.
During the 2014 Revolution of Dignity (Euromaidan), Shevchenko became (and still is) a symbol of national pride, resistance and patriotism.
