Manastyrsky was born in the village of Zavaliv, now Pidhaitsi Raion of the Ternopil region, in the family of a postal official. He graduated from the Lviv Art-Industrial School and later the Krakow Academy of Fine Arts.
In 1900, the Society for the Advancement of the Ruthenian Work, which Manastyrsky was a member of, staged an exhibition of his first paintings. Since that time, he began his artistic career. He paints a whole gallery of high-spiritual works - landscapes, contemporary reality, and satires. Manastyrsky lived and worked in Lviv.
Manastyrsky died May 15, 1969, and was buried in a family tomb at the Lychakiv cemetery.
