An icon and a cross (telnik), attributed to dmitry the false print no. 22 depicts in life size: 1) ancient folding icons; 2) a gold cross, or telnik; 3) a double-headed eagle on a gold plaque, richly decorated with enamel. All these treasures are kept by count musin-pushkin and, according to legend, belonged to dmitry the false. On the folding icons, set in gold with beautiful enamel, are depicted with a skillful brush in the byzantine style: the mother of god with the eternal child and saint nicholas, not in a sakkos (as he is depicted on the ancient icon in bar), but in a cross-shaped phelonion and omophorion, blessing with one hand and holding the gospel with the other. The folding folding icons with ears were apparently intended to be worn on the chest. The four-part vest depicts an eight-part cross without the savior crucified on it and without the torx, or tsata, which is visible on the center of similar crosses of the 17th century. Above the cross is written: tsar of glory, at its ends: icс. Хр. Ника, at the foot: м. Л. Р. Б. , i. E. "the place of execution - paradise has become. " both on the front and on the back side are carved words in small script, probably prayers. If this cross really belonged to false dmitry, then it could be recognized as the same one that he showed to adam vishnevetsky in bragin, as if given to him by his godfather ivan mstislavsky. As for the plaque with a double-headed eagle, topped with three crowns, without a rider, on the chest, it probably formed an adornment of the royal utensils. Date: 1846—1853.
