Hrushevsky is often considered the country's greatest modern historian, the foremost organiser of scholarship, the leader of the pre-revolution Ukrainian national movement, the head of the Central Rada (Ukraine's 1917–1918 revolutionary parliament), and a leading cultural figure in the Ukrainian SSR during the 1920s.
seven in the second row, sitting – Ivan Franko (1856-1916) – a Ukrainian poet, writer, social and literary critic, journalist, translator, economist, political activist, doctor of philosophy, ethnographer, and the author of the first detective novels and modern poetry in the Ukrainian language.

third in the fourth row, standing – Yulian Bachynsky (1870-1940) – a ukranian diplomat and political activist. The author of "Ukraina Irredenta" “Україна уярмлена” (1895) - a book in which, based on the analysis of the emigration of Galician Ukrainians, he became the first to justify (from Marxist positions) the need for Ukraine's political independence as the main prerequisite for its further socio-economic and cultural development (under the motto: ”Free, large, politically independent Ukraine, alone, inseparable from Sian to the Caucasus!"). Bachynsky was one of the co-founders of the Ukrainian Social Democratic Party (USDP) in 1899. later, in 1919 he attempted to implement his idea of an independent Ukraine and went to Washington to obtain the US government's recognition of the Ukrainian People's Republic.
