MODERN HEROES OF UKRAINE - CONTINUATION OF THE HEROISM OF THE UKRAINIAN COSSACKS

The modern heroism of Ukrainian soldiers in battles with Moscow mercenaries has a blood and spiritual connection with the heroism of the Ukrainian Cossack army, which for centuries heroically defended Ukraine from the attacks of the Moscow horde.

This is what inspired the famous Zaporozhian artist Kostyantyn Rotan to create a heroic diptych on which the line between the ages and the present is allegedly erased.

Looking into the faces of the Cossacks, depicted in full historical correspondence to the details of clothing, weapons, and natural surroundings, you see definitely heroic leaders of the times of the Cossacks. You see Courage, Honor, Courage. Insurmountable Will to Victory.
