His father is the outstanding Mstera Master Vladimir Molodkin, his older brothers- Denis and Daniil, are the leading artists of the village of Mstera as well!
The work is called "A Forester" and according to folk believes, the Forest Man is a forest Spirit who keeps the forest and can understand the language of animals and protect all alive being from evil.
