This print showcases the exquisite Chalice, a generous donation made to the Trinity Sergius Monastery by Vasily II, also known as Vasily the Blind, in 1439. Crafted by the talented artist Ivan Fomin from the Moscow School during the early 15th century, this masterpiece is now preserved in the State Open-air Museum of the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius in Sergyev Possad. The Chalice stands as a testament to Old Russian art and its rich history. Adorned with intricate gold engravings, vibrant enamel work, and precious gems, it exudes opulence and grandeur. Its design reflects both religious symbolism and artistic finesse. Within its sacred walls lies an amalgamation of faith and devotion.

Through this remarkable piece of applied arts, we are transported back in time to witness not only Vasily II's patronage but also his unwavering dedication to his faith. The chalice serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time and space while preserving cultural heritage for generations to come.
