Works of Korets Porcelain in Bohdan Khanenko’s Collection

The purpose of the work is to study circulation the works of Korets porcelain from the 18th–19th centuries preserved in the Khanenko Museum collection, as well as to supplement information about the diversity of Bohdan Khanenko’s collection, which later became the foundation of the museum’s holdings named after him. Research methodology. The article employs a comprehensive approach that includes historical-cultural, art historical, and analytical research methods. Analysis of archival materials, museum descriptions, and publications allowed the author not only to examine the collection’s composition but also to objectively evaluate its completeness in terms of covering different time periods and artistic manifestations. Considerable attention is paid to the comparative analysis of Ukrainian porcelain with works from leading European manufactories. The scientific novelty of the publication lies in art analysis two specimens of Korets porcelain, which previously did not receive proper attention in scholarly research. The study of the works and accompanying documentation confirms the presence of Ukrainian porcelain in Bohdan Khanenko’s collection and emphasises the importance of researching the integration of domestic art into the European cultural context. Conclusions. The cup and saucer produced by the Korets Manufactory, preserved in the collection of the Bohdan and Varvara Khanenko National Museum of Arts, are examples of porcelain manufactured in Ukrainian territories and a vivid example of dialogue between Ukrainian and European culture during the 18th–19th centuries. Their presence in the collection not only proves the comprehensive nature of the collection, which includes works belonging to different art forms, historical periods, and varying stylistics, but also demonstrates Bohdan Khanenko’s interest in examples of domestic decorative arts. The discovery of such exhibits in the museum’s collection, despite numerous losses in its collection due to the vicissitudes of domestic history, emphasises the importance of thorough research and promotion of Ukraine’s artistic heritage as an integral part of European cultural heritage.
