The article stems from the problem that has developed in modern higher education programmes such as Humanities, History of Art and Musicology. Learners of these programmes are required to digest an increasingly large amount of information. Yet, the abundance in information, which is not always comparable in quality, obstructs the development of students’ analytical skills. It seems feasible to introduce an innovative course in Hermeneutics of Works of Art into the Humanities, History of Art and Musicology programmes, the course is based on a universal method of artwork analysis elaborated by one of the authors of the article. The article aims to outline the main principles of this course, which is meant to help learners to understand the formation of semantics in various forms of art and to identify the ways of emotional and intellectual impact of artworks. This objective can be achieved by drawing upon a limited number of artworks. The musicological method of analysis is taken as a basis since its technology has been elaborated most thoroughly. This method focuses on the analysis of the formal structure of the work because the form itself contains the most important information about the content. The article shows that the basic structures of European academic music, such as periods, two- and three-part forms, variations, and the sonata form, are universal and derive from the most ancient mythological prototypes. These structures can be easily found in all forms of art and have similar semantic connotations. The proposed method also includes the analysis of polyphony, motivational dramaturgy, and space-time relations in the text, as well as the psychoanalytic approach to content interpretation. The idea of the hermeneutic circle is used to harmonize a general analysis of an artwork and a detailed analysis of its separate elements. The approbation of the proposed study course has demonstrated good results in developing students’ abilities to analyse a work of art.

The orthostats from the North-West Palace of Ashurnasirpal II (883–859 BC) at Nimrud are among the most outstanding works of art from the Ancient Near East. Today they are to be found in museums all over the world and are looked at every day by thousands of visitors. Numerous books and articles have been written about their style, their meaning and their reconstruction. Thus one would think that nothing could have escaped the eye of observers. Nevertheless, some details have been largely overlooked by researchers. Among these is the incised decoration on the edges of the garments of some of the figures depicted, showing a wide range of simple geometric and floral designs as well as complex mythical and narrative scenes. It thus forms a valuable part of the repertoire of Neo-Assyrian artistic motifs and can help us understand the essence and meaning of Neo-Assyrian political art. The evidence of these incised decorations is not only of importance for the history of art but is also fundamental to the understanding of the significance of the clothes and of the figures wearing them, forming an integral and essential part of the mythical symbolic character of the figures.

Anatoly S. Skripkin, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor is turning 80 this year. Anatoly S. Skripkin is one of the prominent experts in the field of Sarmatian archaeology. He has started his research in the 60s of the 20th century and made a huge contribution to the study of Early, Middle and Late Sarmatian cultures. His articles and monographs are well known in the scientific world. Having carefully studied the features of the funeral rite, accompanying inventory, and built the chronology and periodization of Sarmatian history, he consistently moved to ethnohistorical reconstructions, offering a complex and logical picture of the history of Iranian-speaking nomadic peoples of the Eurasian steppes in the Early Iron Age. At the same time, Anatoly S. Skripkin became one of the founders of Volgograd archaeology, forming a close-knit team of scientists involved in various areas of Sarmatian history, including interdisciplinary research. He was also one of the first teachers and organizers of young Volgograd State University. The scientist s achievements were appreciated by the management and scientific community – Anatoly S. Skripkin is an Honorary Worker of Higher Professional Education of the Russian Federation, an Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, and has received many awards. Despite his age, the researcher actively participates in science projects, supervises the training of postgraduate students, and takes part in expeditions. He is a tireless traveler. His visit to India, teaching in China and his travels in Egypt have given precise observations to lectures on the history of the Ancient East, and have given a different perspective to his works on the contacts of the Sarmatian world with eastern countries. We congratulate the dear anniversary celebrant on his birthday, wish him strength, health and new creative achievements.

It has been proven that the current state of the use of the interpretation of works of art in pre-school education can be described as below average, the opportunities for kindergarten teachers to acquire knowledge from the theory and history of art in their pre-graduate training or in other forms of education were lower than average, and the opinions of kindergarten teachers on art can also be described as below average. There is a statistically significant positive correlation between the aforementioned dimensions of the interpretation of works of art in pre-school education.

Since long times ago, the artists of Lorestan, have been earning their livelihood through making various types of handicraft a valuable art piece deeply rooted in the province’s history called nickel silver crafts. In Farsi, varsho is actually the word ‘War-saw’. What is the reason for such labeling of these works of art in the Qajar and Pahlavi periods in Iran? Lorestan artists in Borujerd town created such magnificent art at that time. We still don’t know the reason for this naming, but one thing is clear, such metalwork is part of the history of art in both Poland and Iran.
