This is a real masterpiece of art that was being created in the course of more than eight years by Nikolay Prisekin and Alexey Semyonov, the well-known painters of the Military Artists' Studio named after M.V.

The foreground, which constitutes the whole with the canvas, consists of authentic objects; an anti-tank gun, boxes with cartridges and shells, equipment and ammunition.
