Abstract

The paper deals with the problems of visualization of Ukrainian history of the age of Lithuanian political supremacy (14–16th centuries). It covers such issues as the use of various images produced at that time (Polish engravings of the 16th century, miniatures of the Illustrated Chronicle of Ivan the Terrible etc.), pictures of contemporary painters, photo-forgeries and so on. The article contains also author’s remarks regarding the problem of plagiarizing. It is as evident in the field of illustrating the scholarly publications as in the history-writing itself and needs special public attention. Author makes a stress that the Lithuanian age is in fact lost for the mass historical conscience in Ukraine due to the lack of related commemorative practices. At the same time the memory about this period is being refreshed by some current sociopolitical developments. The same effect may be achieved through joint efforts of scholars, journalists, painters, filmmakers and organizers of medieval festivals
