Yablonov (Yabluniv, Jabłonów)

 

The Jewish cemetery in Yablonov (Yabluniv, Jabłonów) is one the most interesting cemeteries in the region. The tombstones of the 18th century in the Baroque style are amazing examples of the local Jewish folk art. Although the style changed in the 19th and 20th centuries, the images made by the local Jewish artists remained to be very expressive.

The photographs made by Dr. Vladimir Levin during the expedition to the Ivano-Frankivsk region in August 2009.
