Secondly, the exposition is visually very diverse: dense, fabulous forests and picturesque landscapes, as if spied along a long road, at the sight of which it is impossible not to stop and freeze for a moment, admiring the rare beauty of the play of light and colorful reflexes. Masterfully written plots of Russian mythology, ethnic characters of various time periods studied by the author, mark a common collective memory, constantly filled with new experience and wisdom.
