This picture did not stand out in any way from other landscapes, but Zinaida looked at it as if at “La Gioconda”. This is the same place that her father has been searching unsuccessfully all his life! The search ended tragically - my father was killed, and all the records he kept disappeared without a trace... And it turns out he was right: the golden shield of the ancient tribe really exists! According to legend, it repelled the blows of enemies, and its owner was invincible. But over time, the shield lost its magical power, and to restore it, a sacrifice was required - a beautiful young girl... And the artist managed to find the shield! Like many centuries ago, he is chained to a rock above the river and is still waiting for a victim...
