General information about John George Pinzel Museum (Church of the Poor Clares) (Lviv)

The museum of the famous Ukrainian Baroque sculptor Johann Georg Pinsel (Ivan Georgy Pinzel) is located in the former church of the Poor Clares, which is an architectural monument of the XVII century. Modest in architecture, but luxuriously painted from the middle, the church was built in 1607 by Paul the Roman and Bernard Avelides on the site of an old chapel of nuns of the Poor Clares of the Bernardine Order. Since then, the Renaissance elements of the side facade of the church from Lychakivska Street have been preserved. In the 1740s the church underwent a Baroque reconstruction, and during the restoration of 1938-1939 the tower was completed. The interiors of the church are decorated with paintings by Stanislav Stroinsky made in the XVIII century, some later plots in the southern na ...

The interiors of the church are decorated with paintings by Stanislav Stroinsky made in the XVIII century, some later plots in the southern nave belong to the brush of Tadeusz Popel. Since 1996, the Church of the Poor Clares houses the Museum of Baroque Sculpture of Johann Georg Pinsel, which is called "Ukrainian Michelangelo". Here is the richest collection of unique baroque sculptures by master, which were found and saved in the 1970s. The Johann Georg Pinsel Museum is a department of the Lviv National Art Gallery named after Borys Voznytsky.

Музей видатного українського скульптора доби бароко Івана Георгія Пінзеля розташований у колишньому костелі кларисок, що є пам’яткою архітектури XVII століття. Скромний за архітектурою, але розкішно розписаний з середини храм споруджений у 1607 році Павлом Римлянином і Бернардом Авелідесом на місці старої каплиці монахинь кларисок бернардинського ордену. З тих часів збереглись ренесансні елементи бічного фасаду костелу від вулиці Личаківської. У 1740-х роках костел зазнав реконструкції у бароковому стилі, а під час реставрації 1938-1939 років було добудовано вежу. Інтер'єри храму прикрашають зроблені у XVIII столітті розписи Станіслава Строїнського, окремі пізніші сюжети у південній наві належать пензлю Тадеуша Попеля.

З 1996 року в костелі кларисок розташовується Музей барокової скульптури Іоана Георгія Пінзеля, якого називають "українським Мікеланджело". Тут зібрано найбагатшу колекцію унікальних барокових скульптур майстра, які вдалося відшукати і врятувати в 1970-х роках. Музей Івана Георгія Пінзеля є відділом Львівської національної галереї мистецтв ім. Бориса Возницького.
