[раскатов]

In the summer of 1910 the artist Alexander Makovsky made an interesting artistic journey to the north and brought a rich collection of etyudov.No most valuable in the collection, it is - studies that are closely related to the uncle of the first king of the Romanov dynasty, Mikhail Nikitich nobleman, a victim of an insidious and relentless policy of Boris Godunov .
Once a witch predicted to Boris that he should beware of the Romanovs. Boyar Filaret Romanov was forcibly tonsured as a monk. As Mikhail Romanov, - a bitter fate awaited him: a young, handsome, burly and strong was kept chained, who weighed three and a half peck, and had a length of three fathoms, and then put in a dug pit, covered with planks. A year later he died in the pit of hunger. And when Peter the Great his remains buried in a church, dug, and they were incorruptible relics. The people afflicted were called Saints.
