Om maleriet

Med museets ord — på russisk

В эскизе к этой картине был изображен старинный город, обнесенный бревенчатыми стенами с дозорными башнями, на первом плане которого вороны, предвещающие добычу с поля боя. Рерих изменил композицию после разговора с Архипом Куинджи, одним из своих учителей. Художник убрал верхнюю часть с городским фоном. Ее композиционной, эмоциональной и смысловой доминантой стали огромных размеров черные птицы, олицетворяющие зло. Галина Кречина // Николай Рерих. В поисках Шамбалы. СПб, 2020. С. 17.
