Story behind the illustration

In the first months of Russia's full-scale invasion, one image of a destroyed apartment building went viral for encapsulating Ukraine's resistance. The photo taken in April 2022 showed a ruined building in Borodianka in Kyiv Oblast, where an entire room had been ripped away in a Russian strike. Just one wall with a kitchen cabinet remained intact. On top of the cabinet, a ceramic rooster was miraculously still standing. The rooster is thought to have first been produced sometime around 1960 in a factory in the nearby town of Vasylkiv, and is based on traditional Ukrainian pottery.
