Modern hand-painted signs
It makes me very happy when new stores, bars, and restaurants
use the old method of advertising what products they have for sale, that is,
painting the name of their establishment and their products directly on the store’s
facade. There are several examples of such places in Lviv. They are so much
more aesthetically pleasing than stores which use big, bulky, plastic or neon
signs.
This store, which in fact kept the old signs that were found
during renovation, added one sign in Ukrainian, which says “Продукти” and has
the store’s hours. At first I thought the Ukrainian sign was old and was really
excited to find more old signs in Ukrainian, but the more I thought about I realized
it is very unlikely that was old, especially as it has the hours of the store. In
fact, I think it is possible that that section which has the word “products”
listed in different languages may be all new.
The rest of the pictures are of new stores, restaurants, and
bars that continued the tradition of hand-painted signs.
