"

Alla Khatyukhina , director YAHM highlighted the value of the icon - frame as an object of ancient art . In 1588, Kazan was established painters of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God , in whose honor was founded in 1609 in Yaroslavl, Kazan convent. In the 1690s the year it was made for the frame . It contained scenes of historical events of the Time of Troubles . It was at that time, Yaroslavl became the temporary capital of the Russian state.

In Soviet times, the icon has been lost. In YAHM frame enrolled in post-war 1946 The restoration was completed in 2001. The scientific staff of the museum include the authorship frame Yaroslavl icon painter Lawrence Sevastyanov . Now on permanent display frame Museum and is of cultural heritage.

The museum decided to make a copy for the monastery in 2012. The question arose - what means unique to the job? Museum staff were ... benefactors. They are not distributed among themselves a well-deserved prize at the International Festival of Museums "Intermuseum ", received in June 2013. to 300 thousands . rub. winner in the category " rare visitor " (project " Seminarians at the Museum" ), and spent it on a copy of the frame. Staff at the workshop " Yaroslavl, in the name of Peter and Paul, " have done this work , we can say the enthusiasm , because 300 thousand rubles . not even cover the cost of materials .

Yaroslavl intellectuals generous for talent with a big heart and a sympathetic soul. Beautiful and inspiring action, rare in these times of civil significance - to refuse money for arts sake . And they did it the people with modest salaries of museum workers .

Against the backdrop of corruption scandals , " glorified " in the last year Yaroslavl, such an act is as iconic. While one is allowed to stand corruption schemes , others - creating a beautiful work of art, made ??their own contribution to the formation of the cultural heritage of the region . It is possible that after years of Yaroslavl art historians will remember this time as a period of synergies YAHM and ROC on the preservation of cultural heritage, almost without effort the state or business.

Businessmen and officials often go to YAHM , touch the wonderful world of art , clean the head of the greedy thoughts, do something useful for the people , for posterity.
