Bogatyrs 1898 by Vasnetsov Viktor Mikhailovich[Russian, 1848-1926] Hand-painted Oil Painting Reproduction Copy on Canvas
"Bogatyrs" - the picture of Victor Vasnetsov. Another common name of the painting - "Three heroes". The original author's name was longer - "Bogatyrs Ilya Muromets, Dobrynya N. Alyosha Popovich and take notice ... in the field, the enemy is not there, do not offend anyone there ?" Vasnetsov worked on the picture is almost twenty years. In April 1898 it was finished, and bought M. Tretyakov for his gallery.The bogatyr (from baghatur, an old Altaic term for a warrior, a military commander, or an epic hero) or vityaz (Russian: витязь, a valiant warrior) was a medieval heroic warrior of Kievan Rus', akin to Western European knight errant.
An early usage of the word bogatyr was recorded in Sernitskiy's book "Descriptio veteris et novae Poloniae cum divisione ejusdem veteri et nova," printed in 1585 in an unknown location, in which he says, "Rossi… de heroibus suis, quos Bohatiros id est semideos vocant, aliis persuadere conantur."
Bylinas prominently feature stories about these heroes, as do several chronicles. Some of bogatyrs are presumed to be historical figures, while others, like giant Sviatogor, are purely fictional and possibly descend from Slavic pagan mythology.
The most famous vityazs' were the trio of Alyosha Popovich, Dobrynya Nikitich and Ilya Muromets, who served prince Vladimir I of Kiev. Each of them tend to be known for a certain character trait: Alyosha Popovich for his wits, Dobrynya Nikitich for his courage, and Ilya Muromets for his physical and spiritual power and integrity, and for his dedication to the protection of his homeland and people.
