The exhibition was presented until April 30, 2017 at the Museum in Sosnowiec (Schoen's Palace), it showed wall paintings by Jan Henryk Rosen, decorating the Armenian cathedral in Lviv.

The exhibition presented Jan Henryk Rosen’s masterpiece – the wall paintings in the Armenian cathedral in Lviv. This eminent example of religious paintings from the interbellum period has never been presented to a large audience before. The artist brings together the elements of modernism and Byzantine art and, by the unique iconographic programme, helps to learn the exceptional character of the Armenian rite, largely unknown in Poland.
