In recent days, all my access to the Internet brings me back to the thought of the Garden and the “Song of Songs” of King Solomon. Since such circling occurs, I considered it necessary to do some research on the topic. The starting point for a conscious search in this direction was the discovery of such a remarkable and, in a certain sense, unique icon “Vertograd Prisoner” by Nikita Pavlovets.

Here she is. And some enlarged fragments of it:

"In the icon, the Mother of God in regal robes made of heavy brocade with golden flowers with the Child in her arms is depicted standing in the garden. Two flying angels support a crown above Her head. This “coronation” indicates borrowing from Western models. In the context of the images, “hortus conclusus” coronation The Mother of God was depicted, for example, in the indicated work by M. Schongauer.

The garden is rectangular, enclosed by a low golden balustrade and planted with regular rows of herbs and flowers, mainly tulips and carnations. The same flowers stand in vases at the corners of the fence and by the pond. The display of paradise conveys not so much the artist’s impression of the royal and boyar regular gardens that actually existed in Rus' at that time, but rather the idea of ​​the comfortable, well-groomed and orderly nature of the garden of paradise, fenced off in the icon from the “wild” hilly landscape. The strictly regular layout of the Garden of Eden was one of the many properties attributed to paradise, and was especially emphasized, for example, in the vision of Blessed Andrei the Fool (Cheti Menaion, October 2), which says: “These beautiful gardens stood there in rows, like a regiment stands against a regiment.” .

It is interesting that the depicted garden is not enclosed by a fence - the balustrade has only three walls, and in the foreground the function of a barrier is performed by the depicted body of water, a pond that separates the garden from the viewer. Perhaps this reflects one of the many medieval ideas, according to which paradise is separated from the rest of the world by a river, a certain body of water that is difficult to overcome. At the same time, the Mother of God stands on a semicircular ledge, as if above a pond, she is close to the lower edge of the icon, to those ahead. This projection is associated with the similarly shaped projection of the solea in the temple, just as the small rectangular platforms on the sides of the center correspond to the steps leading to the side doors of the altar.

"S.S. Averintsev pointed out the equivalence of concepts associated with the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe structure of paradise. Thus, the Slavic grad meant both “city” and “garden”; the name of the garden, vineyard Vertograd also contains the idea of ​​enclosure. That is why these images overlap on each other, inside the holy city a garden appears on icons, frescoes and miniatures. Both ideas were extremely popular in literature" (ibid.).

“The source for the iconography of the composition “The Prisoner’s Heights,” which was especially popular in Western European medieval art under the name hortus conclusus, is the biblical Song of Songs, or rather its following verses: “The locked garden is my sister, my bride, the imprisoned well, the sealed spring: your nurseries - a garden with pomegranate apples, with excellent fruits, keeper with backgammon, spikenard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon with all kinds of fragrant trees, myrrh and scarlet with all kinds of the best aromas. "(Song 4: 12-15)" (http:// www.pravoslavie.ru/jurnal/615.htm).

The compositions under the general name hortus conclusus (or Madonna in the “rose garden”; rose garden) also include the magnificent work of the Italian master Stefano da Verona (otherwise Stefano da Zevio; ca. 1375-1451) “Madonna in the Arbor of Roses” ( early 15th century; Castelvecchio Museum, Verona; tempera on wood).

A few fragments:

The icon “Vertograd Prisoner” by the famous icon painter of the Armory Chamber of the second half of the 17th century, Nikita Pavlovets, was created approximately in 1670. This work of icon painting is kept today in the State Tretyakov Gallery and occupies a special place in the history of icon painting. “Prisoner's Vertograd” is a unique masterpiece, and its uniqueness lies in the special artistic style of iconography, which has been very little studied to date.

The image has a special meaning that cannot be overestimated. In fact, at present this is the only known icon of the Mother of God “Vertograd Prisoner”, which is celebrated (old style) on March 14 in accordance with the church calendar. There is a possibility that the icon was repeated several times, but none of its repetitions - lists - have survived to this day. The miraculous icons “Vertograd Prisoner” are mentioned in the works of E. Poselyanin, S. Mokhovikov and D. Rovinsky, but none of the authors provides their descriptions, which would allow us to assert or at least assume that a certain tradition of icon painting took place.

The composition of the icon “Vertograd Prisoner” is based on the biblical Song of Songs. Western European literature associated the images of the garden and the bride from the Song of Songs with the Mother of God. Based on such ideas, Latin allegories of the garden appeared, which were found in the 13th–14th centuries, as a rule, in festive sermons associated with the veneration of the Virgin Mary.

Many literary monuments testify to how popular the theme of the vertograd was - a fenced garden, which is directly related to the concept of “Mary’s garden” and the symbolism of the Mother of God. The origin of this theme in the painting of Western Europe is still unknown, but it has gained particular popularity since the beginning of the 15th century.

Probably, the composition of the icon “Prisoner Vertograd” and its essence are based on Western European artistic models, but none of the authors copies the painting of the Last Judgment, which is also called “Prisoner Vertograd”. The Pavlovets icon is a new and unique phenomenon, which has no analogues in ancient Russian art.

In the icon “Vertograd Prisoner”, the Mother of God, dressed in regal robes of heavy brocade, decorated with golden flowers, stands in the garden, holding the Baby in her arms. Above her head is a crown held by two flying angels. This “coronation” speaks of some kind of borrowing from examples of Western art.

The garden is depicted in the shape of a quadrangle and is enclosed by a golden balustrade. The garden itself is planted with herbs and rows of flowers, mainly carnations and tulips. The same flowers are placed in vases standing next to the pond and in the corners of the fence. Paradise is depicted by the icon painter in accordance with his impressions of the real gardens of that era, which belonged to the boyars or kings. The master sought to convey a feeling of well-groomed, orderly, comfortable garden of Eden, which is fenced off from the “wild” landscape with hills. It is noteworthy that the fence surrounding the garden is not closed, but encloses it on three sides. On the fourth side, the function of a fence is performed by a pond.

"The Prisoner of the Helix", without a specific source, depicts paradise using complex allegorical language. However, this work is not an allegorical painting, but first of all a great Orthodox icon.

Before the icon of the Most Holy Theotokos “Prisoner of Vertograd” they pray for the loved ones of the deceased, for peace of mind after adversity.

Prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos before Her icon “Prisoned Vertograd”

But I call to You the Mother of my Lord with sobs of tears: come to my aid quickly, so that I do not completely perish, snatch me from the hands of those, and rescue me from the sinful city, again build up my spiritual city, and make the ruler of the mind in it, and reign over Strengthen everyone’s feelings, show the enemy unapproachable and terrible; let everyone know that I am supported by You. Saving, save, O Lady Virgin, my soul, just as You sometimes saved Your city, trusting in You, for glory and intercession of the faithful, for the shame of the wicked, and forever for their endless torment, for greatness and praise from generation to generation of the faithful Christian family.

May I be able to pass the path of this short-lived life kindly and without stumbling, and I will receive its eternal goodness, and I will glorify Your firm intercession, as you are blessed, with the Son and God born of You, now and to endless ages. Amen.
