Starts at 14:00
The program includes:
The language of the fan, which was a generally accepted part of courtship. The fan was an indispensable attribute of a lady’s flirtation. At the time, there was even an expression meaning “to fan” — to flirt or coquette. The age at which one could begin “fanning” was 13–14. Although the fan was held by a woman, the man to whom these messages were addressed also had to know all the subtleties of its secret language.
“Living Pictures”. Visitors will be able to recreate Baroque-era paintings in specially prepared interiors.
Baroque Artist. After completing a poetics course — a short course in versification — visitors will be able to create “poetic games” typical of Baroque poetry. These include so-called “shaped poems”, written or printed in the form of an object: an egg, cross, cup, triangle, etc.
Hryhorii Skovoroda created emblematic drawings for his book “The Alphabet, or Primer of the World”. Visitors to the Skovoroda Museum will also have an opportunity to feel like Baroque-era artists.
Also included: Skovoroda-style tea drinking, “cracking nuts” as a way of understanding the two natures — visible and invisible — and the wonderful atmosphere of the spring park, a monument of 18th-century landscape art.
