Сюита "Богатырский фриз"

В 1909-1910 годах Рерих исполнил серию панно "Богатырский фриз" для особняка видного промышленника и почетного гражданина Петербурга Ф. Г. Бажанова. Дом был построен по проекту архитектора П. Р. Алешина в 1907-1908 годах в стиле модерн. Каждый его интерьер отличался неповторимым оформлением, но тема героической Древней Руси была доминирующей. Гостиную украшал майоликовый камин "Вольга и Микула", исполненный по эскизу М. А. Врубеля, а панно Рериха размещались в столовой. Серия состояла из восьми сюжетных ("Садко", "Витязь", "Баян", "Илья Муромец", "Микула Селянинович", "Город", "Вольга Святославович", "Соловей-разбойник") и одиннадцати декоративных композиций. Создание монументального "Богатырского фриза" стало в творчестве художника кульминацией его обращения к теме былин.
