This T-shirt features Albina Kolesnichenko’s "Soulmates" illustration: a couple in traditional Ukrainian attire, captured in a tender moment. They are characters from the enchanting world of vertep, a Ukrainian Christmas puppet theater that originates from the 16th century.
Imagine a small wooden stage, adorned with intricately crafted puppets. The upper level depicts the nativity scene, with angels and the newborn King. Below, on the earthly realm where our "Soulmates" reside, vibrant scenes from Ukrainian life unfold, featuring Cossacks, merchants, and noblemen — all interwoven into the rich tapestry of the everyday.

Story behind the illustration
Vertep, a Ukrainian puppet theater tradition since the 16th century, depicts the Nativity scene with puppets on a two-story stage. Uniquely, it includes secular characters like Cossacks and merchants on the lower level, engaging in humorous dialogue and social commentary.
Originally performed solely with puppets, the tradition evolved to include human actors, blending storytelling, music, and drama. Inspired by Western mystery plays and infused with Ukrainian folk traditions, the Vertep remains a vibrant part of Ukraine's cultural heritage.
