The article analyzes the influence of artistic styles on the magazine covers of the 1st third of the
20th century in different regions of Ukraine. The modifications of the artistic approaches in the context
of social-historical events, the connection between the fonts and the plots are considered. The study
focuses on changes that occurred in society, and shows how the new ideology was reflected in
changing styles and figurative content. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries Ukrainian graphic arts
became a part of the European artistic process. Journal and book graphics, drawings for magazines
and newspapers - these forms of graphic art acquired a priority development in the fine arts and
shaped the cultural life of that time.
Today, objectively evaluating the Ukrainian culture of this age as blooming, one should appreciate
the importance of the development of Ukrainian book printing. Analysing the peculiarities of the national
graphic arts, especially in the area of books, periodicals, almanacs, the researcher notes the constant
attraction that the artists had to national traditions and symbolic images of folk art. The movement for
a national style developed in the context of complex, intense artistic life in Ukraine that was oriented
mainly on common European tendencies or traditions of Russian art. The artistic process involved
young artists who received artistic education in Munich, Vienna, Paris, Cracow, St. Petersburg and
Moscow, but the vast majority had ties with Russian and Polish art.
Symbolism and modernism were the leading artistic styles of the graphic art in the first two
decades of the century. At the same time, the futuristic movement, which included features of cubism,
expressionism, and neo-primitivism, was also noticeable. The arts of the poster and the book and
magazine cover enriched and complemented one another. The artists often combined different stylistic
trends. In the 1920s – early 1930s the constructivist trend prevailed.
