The War of the Mushrooms is a group of 10 original illustrations by Ukrainian artist Nikita Kravtsov on view at The Ukrainian Museum. Drawing inspiration from the eponymous folk tale,a popular classic in Slavic cultures and the subject of a 1909 publication of the tale featuring illustrations by the prominent Ukrainian graphic artist, Heorhii Narbut, Kravtsov's contemporary interpretation reimagines the tale with paintings of scenes from Russia's current war on Ukraine.
