Abstract
Based on archival documents and drawings of the icon-painting workshop of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra in the 18th century, the article analyzes mainly the inscriptions made by the authors and also the Ukrainian element in the Ukrainian baroque. The author presents the level of research on this topic. It is established that the Lavra icon-painting workshop had a high level of teaching the icon-painting science. In 1763, the Lavra workshop was transformed into a “school”. The administrators of the school not only monitored the general conditions, but also taught icon-painting. The students were divided into 2 groups: one group consisted of apprentices, the other of pupils. The students in the Lavra studied according to Western books. On the example of several drawings, the author shows the uniqueness of religious subjects, one of the features of which was to paint the image of saints in a typical Ukrainian manner.
