Decorating Easter eggs, or Pysanky, is a long-standing tradition in Ukraine that dates back thousands of years. The practice of creating these ornate eggs is believed to have originally been a pagan ritual that was later adapted by the Christian church to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.
The designs on Pysanky often have symbolic meanings, with common motifs including stars, flowers, and animals. Different regions of Ukraine have their own unique styles and color schemes for decorating Pysanky, making each egg a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Today, Pysanky continue to be an important part of Ukrainian culture and are often given as gifts to friends and family during the Easter season.
