The Granny s Apocrypha, Бабушкин Апокриф Dmitri Frolov, 2001

This story was told to me by my grandmother in early childhood. Now I know about it much more but still remember those first childhood Saw and imagined in the children s fantasy the story of grandmother of Christ and the Apostles a little girl. Today few people remember that just a few decades ago in the village houses next to the icons you could still see the popular prints on religious themes. They finally disappeared from use only in the 60ies of the last century. Of course, their creators were not professional painters or connoisseurs of theology. Drew, as best they could, she felt, not knowing neither rules nor laws. Simple uneducated people, nuggets, sought to glorify God with their creativity, that resonates in the hearts of those of peasants or artisans as they are.
