It's Taras Shevchenko's birthday! Taras Shevchenko is one of the most famous poets and artists in Ukraine!!!! Happy birthday Taras!!! Sunday 9th of March 2026 More info ⬇️ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Taras Shevchenko (1814–1861) was a foundational Ukrainian poet, artist, and political figure who shaped modern Ukrainian literature and national identity. Born into serfdom, he was freed in 1838 and later exiled for 10 years (1847–1857) for his anti-imperial poetry. His famous collection, Kobzar, and his artistic works remain iconic symbols of Ukrainian freedom and resistance.
It's very sad that he's not alive to see this but I'm still giving credit to him.
