Moldo-Ukrainian Interferences in the Evolution of the Art of Noble and Common Metals

Summary/Abstract: Within this paper, the author emphasizes the Moldo-Ukrainian cultural relations during the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century, in what regards the field of the art of noble and common metals. On the basis of the museum collections and of the archive files, it was possible to identify a series of metal objects which were crafted by craftsmen of Ukrainian cities, and then made their way into Bessarabia – liturgical books with metal bookbinding, church bells etc. The collected items enabled us to conclude that throughout the evolution of the art of metals, the Bessarabian craftsmen cooperated with those of the Ukrainian cities (Odessa, Kiev, Balta, Kamianets-Podilskyi), especially during the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.
