Vul. Lystopadovoho Chynu, 11 – Oleksa Novakivskyi Museum ID: 419

The former studio of Jan Styka (now the Oleksa Novakivskyi Museum, a branch of the National Museum in Lviv; 1889–1890, designed by architect Julian Zachariewicz). Late Historicism (romanticizing trend, Neogothic). This corner building serves as the architectural accent of the block overlooking the park area, situated diagonally from St. George's Hill. The structure is highlighted by a gabled end wall that is truncated at the upper tier and topped by a triangular pediment. Nearly the entire surface of this wall is occupied by a large pointed-arch window belonging to the studio, oriented to the northeast. It stands as an exemplary model of a late nineteenth-century artist's house and studio.
