There were two sources for the pysanky from this region: an anthology published in 1928 (“Zvenyhorodshchyna”), and the work of five local pysankarky.
The pysankarky who wrote the originals of the pysanky on this page were:
✴Natalka Honchar (1916-1989) from Sofiivka; her pysanky were written in 1985. № 4-10.
✴Vasylyna Boiko (b. 1917) from Sofiivka; her pysanky were written in 1985. № 11-19.
✴Halyna Kornienko (b. 1960) from Sofiivka; her pysanky were written in 1984-1985. № 20-29.
✴Nina Ponomarenko (b 1930) from Husakove. № 30-40.
✴Hanna Nedonosok (b1937) from Husakove; her pysanky were written in 1992. № 41-55.
Those included in the anthology were from the village of Skalyvatka, № 1-3.
When writing these pysanky, had some issues with the dye taking, so some were not reproduced exactly. I will note the original colors where they differ from those shown.
Errors:
VI 17: there should be an equatorial dividing line, and two longitudinal dividing lines.
VII 38: there should be a second inset star in each of the top and bottom stars, with orange infill.
