INTERCHEM FROM ODESA HELPS IN PROJECT OF RECONSTRUCTING REAL FACE OF YAROSLAV THE WISE

11 March , 2021  

The pharmaceutical company Interchem (Odesa), the double liability company, within the framework of patronage support, has invested UAH 2 million in the project of a unique 3D hologram of the real face of Yaroslav the Wise, which is installed in Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kyiv, Director General of Interchem Anatoliy Reder has said.
“We have invested UAH 2 million in this project. There are plans for further cooperation and new projects,” he told Interfax-Ukraine during a presentation on Thursday, March 4.
Reder noted that recent studies in Saint Sophia Cathedral’s nature reserve made it possible to visualize the authentic features of Yaroslav the Wise. Unique Danish equipment was used for visualization.
The project allows to see the face of Yaroslav the Wise, as he could have been at the age of about 45, while the canonical image of the prince, restored from his skull, creates an appearance similar to the appearance of the Russian monarchs. In this guise, Prince Yaroslav is represented at a much older age.
As reported earlier, Interchem was one of the patrons of the project to drain the foundations and walls of Saint Sophia Cathedral and adjacent monastic buildings from excess moisture using the Swiss technology BioDry.
Saint Sophia Cathedral is one of the historical sites included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The cathedral is the spiritual center, where the unique knowledge base of the Ukrainian people for the last millennium is concentrated. Thanks to the patrons who restored the cathedral in different historical epochs after enemy invasions and natural disasters, its ancient architecture and the world’s most complete ensemble of original mosaics and frescoes of the 11th century have been preserved. It has 260 square meters of mosaics and 3,000 square meters of frescoes.
