Restoration of paintings in the Polish Secondary School of St. Mary Magdalene in Lviv (Ukraine)

The paintings from the early 1930s, decorating the corridor of the St. Mary Magdalene School commonly referred to as 'Magdusia', are believed to have been made by its students or graduates.

The first stage of conservation work was carried out in 2017 under the supervision of Dr Paweł Boliński, an art conservator from the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, as part of a conservation workshop funded by the Marshal of the Małopolska Region. During the renovation work of the corridor and the resulting removal of the secondary utility room, further fragments of the paintings were found that required protection and conservation.

In 2018. POLONIKA Institute undertook to fund the preservation and conservation work on the newly uncovered paintings. The work was carried out , as before, under the supervision of Dr. Bolinski

Paintings in the art déco style can also be found in other rooms, e.g. in the staircase (image of the Holy Spirit). It is possible that similar paintings are present in other, as yet undiscovered locations. Further research is therefore planned in the rooms of the "Magdusi".
