In this section, we tried to collect examples of paintings relating to the personality of Yaroslav the Wise. Unfortunately, reliable portraits created by contemporaries of the prince have not survived – this collection contains works by artists of later times, as well as modern images.
Attention! When clicking on the thumbnails of portraits, high-resolution images open, if you have a low Internet connection speed – wait a few minutes.
