eloquent line "Endowment" lord of St. Sergius, the picture accompanying the donation to the museum: "With Vasily Nikolayevich Yakovlev I met in Moscow in the spring of 1942. Our acquaintance was a friendship and then turned into a personal friendship. I was drawn widest erudition of the man. His knowledge in philosophy were encyclopedic. We had a debate on philosophical topics ... In the music he loved Beethoven and Bach, which corresponds to, and my tastes ... "

VN Yakovlev attended the worship of the "gift of victory arms of the Soviet army in the summer of 1942, which carried Zvenigorodsky Bishop Sergius. After the service offered a portrait painter - painting of the moment. The product was produced within two years and was completed in 1944. Father Sergius, having received it as a gift from the artist already in 1943, prepared her for the Odessa Theological Seminary, but for some reason failed to deliver it to Odessa.

In the artist's studio now see prominent military leaders, including K. Voroshilov, foreign ambassadors, bishops of the church, in particular, Metropolitan Krutitskii Nicholas, writers LM Leonov and S. P. Borodin. After that for various reasons the work was hidden from the audience.

Until 1946, the picture was the author of the studio, in 1956 - moved to Astrakhan, where Sergius was appointed Bishop of Astrakhan and Stalingrad. In the following year. Sergius had served in many dioceses, followed by traveling and this picture. In November 1966, Archbishop Sergius gave the product as a gift to Yaroslavl Historical and Architectural Museum-Reserve, and at the section of the museum, it became the property of the Yaroslavl Art Museum. Until 2005, the canvas was kept on the wall, hidden from the eyes of not only the mass audience, but also a rare museum staff had the opportunity to see him.

Celebrating the 60 th anniversary was an occasion for the revival of the work. It was first presented to a wide audience at the exhibition devoted to this significant event. It recalls that the Russian Orthodox Church and its ministers were carriers of high patriotic feelings and were the spiritual backbone of the Russian people.
