			Paintings by Boris Grigoriev and now cause a backlash. Here I am standing in the State Tretyakov Gallery on the Crimean-old women with thrush, a strong thing and consider that there is. He came close until there was nobody. Then came a young family, mom, dad, daughter, age seven. I gave way, but not left and involuntarily overheard a conversation between mothers and girls.
 In short, they got scared and quickly left, something continuing to talk to each other.
 I can imagine the reaction to a series Grigorieva "race", what charges he listened to his address. And, of course, were the first, "You do not love Russia, you do not like Russian.
 While the motto of all the tragic life of the artist himself expressed the phrase:
 «I am all yours, I love Russia and Russian ...»
