Over the centuries, a number of artists have resorted to the events of biblical history. Strictly following
      the canon, like the Byzantine masters, introducing elements of secular image into the composition, like
      Raphael and Michelangelo, or interpreting the plot and freely experimenting with the form, like Picasso
      and Bourdelle, the artists of different epochs invariably drew special inspiration from episodes of
      Christian history.
      The sculptor A. N. Burganov has also repeatedly referred to scenes from biblical history in his artwork. In
      these works, his perception of the gospel events is invariably complex, ambiguous and tragic.
      Not being a religious artist, A. N. Burganov rethinks the essence of many phenomena and moves away
      from the straightforward, classical interpretation of subjects, refuses to depict canonical iconographic
      schemes and attaches deep and philosophical significance to his works.
