Paola Dmitrievna Volkova, an outstanding art historian and thinker, reveals to us the intertwining of reflections on world art and the nature of the human being—its purpose and connections to God, space, and time.

But the author writes not only about this. This book contains personal memories, portraits of outstanding figures from the distant past and of our contemporaries, and an analysis of masterpieces of painting, theater, and cinema. On the pages of the book, very interestingly and accessibly, the unity and contradiction of the continuous movement toward light is presented—toward what is called the “path into infinity.”
