Album sheet;

wax pencils;

Watercolor paints;

The brushes are thin and thick;

A jar of water.

First, on a white sheet in different places, draw various fish with wax crayons. We use bright colors: yellow, red, orange and others. It is better if the fish swim in different directions. Below we draw pebbles in black, brown or gray.

Then we paint over the entire sheet with a thick brush with cold watercolors. flowers: blue, purple, cyan. We take enough water on the brush to get interesting infusions of one color into another and color stretches. The smoother the transition of colors and tones, the more effective the work will look. The image of fish and pebbles will show through, as the wax repels water.

Then, until the blue paint is dry, paint with a thin brush algae in green using the technique "wet". « underwater kingdom» ready!

SEA KING - the lord over all the seas, over all the inhabitants of the sea and the sea elements. As ancient as the Sea itself. It travels the seas in a shell pulled by sea dogs or sea horses. He has a crown of sea ferns on his head, in one hand he holds an oar, with which, if necessary, he tames the waves, the elements of the sea, in the other, a spear or a trident, with which he excites the elements, causes storms, fights with his opponents and punishes the disobedient. His halls are in the depths of the sea, in the depths of the ocean.

Beyond the reach of mortals,

Between high flinty mountains,

Platform of asp and pure azure,

Chambers from one carved mountain;

There is a throne studded with amber pearls,

On it sits a gray-haired Tsar like waves.

In the bays, in the ocean stretches his right hand,

He commands the waters with a sapphire scepter.

M. V. Lomonosov

Serving him countless naval army. When the King of the Sea is angry or when he is having fun - and he loves to have fun, and because of the monotony of underwater life, he tries to drag a person who can entertain him to himself - a terrible storm rises on the sea, ships and people perish.

The wife of the Sea King is the White Fish. They also have children, but only all daughters. To give them in marriage, but where to get suitors? So the Sea King is trying in all fairy tales to drag a young man into his underwater kingdom.

In Russian mythology, the god of the sea, the ruler of the underwater kingdom. Unsuccessfully wooed to, the daughter of the god of the night sky Dyya. In the form of the Three-Headed Serpent, he fought with and was defeated by him. He turned Plenka into a snake, who refused to marry him. After that, he married Belorybitsa, "the queen of all fish." He lived in a large palace at the bottom of the sea, had a huge naval army under his command, and rode the sea in a golden chariot. He sat on the throne, surrounded by guards - "crayfish-crabs with huge claws." In his closest retinue were " a catfish fish with a big mustache, and a burbot-fat-lip - a murderous gull, and a stellate sturgeon, and a toothy pike, and a giant sturgeon, a toad with a belly - what a jug". In anger and joy he raised waves and sank ships.

He demanded tribute from Sadko's ships. He admired Sadko's playing on the harp so much that he gave his daughter Chernava for him. In his kingdom, at the bottom there was a cave leading underground, from where the Great Black Serpent was to come out at the end of time. Peacefully coexisted with another kingdom at the bottom of the sea, the mistress of which was Volyn, the wife of the sun god Ra. When Ra turned into a river, Volhynia and its kingdom sank to the bottom of the sea. According to some hypotheses, this motif of folk legends could be associated with the memory of the continents that have gone under water - Atlantis in the Atlantic, Arctida in the Arctic, Lemuria in the Pacific, Pacifida in the Pacific Oceans. The Tsar of the Sea was also revered by sailors under the names of Chernomorets, the Tsar of the Bottom. The King of the Sea also plays a significant role in the tale of Vasilisa the Wise. Here he also wants to leave a hero (Ivan Tsarevich) in his underwater kingdom, but the daughter of the Tsar of the Sea, Vasilisa, who fell in love with the prince, runs away with him and saves him from her father's pursuit. The epic and fabulous King of the Sea should be distinguished from the water spirit, which occupied a prominent place in the demonological beliefs of the common people. These, with a puffy belly and a swollen face, living in the whirlpools, especially near mills, famous drunkards, visiting taverns, playing dice, stealing horses and cows and drowning people, are completely different from the epic King of the Sea, who lives in rich chambers and is depicted passionate music lover.


The sea king is the supreme ruler of all the waters that wash the earth. When he is having fun in his magnificent underwater halls, bad weather is played out, and the raging elements sink the ships. In order to appease the tsar, shipbuilders put bread and salt overboard, and it happened that people were drawn by lot, as in the epic about Sadko. According to ancient Slavic legends, all the seas and oceans are the blood of the Sea King, and the rivers are his daughters. That is why superstitious ideas are associated with them in many places in Rus', which are echoes of the ancient deification of the waters of the earth. He rules over all the fish and animals that are only found in the seas.



Sometimes in our fairy tales, the Sea King appears in the form of a fierce stallion, which must be ridden by a powerful hero. Sometimes it even turns into a black cloud, which spews out a lot of water and formidable lightning. In its original meaning, the Sea King was the god of rain clouds, which erupted on the earth and formed seas on it, where the lord of the waters moved. The image of the original creator and creator of the world - obviously Dyya (or Diva) - eventually split into Perun - the lord of thunderstorms, the god of the winds Stribog and the Sea King.

VASILISA THE WISE

There lived a king. Once he went to war on a greyhound horse, and for a long time he was not at home. Here he was riding back with a victory, and thirst began to torment him. He saw a large lake and decided to drink from it, he just crouched down on the water, someone grabs him by the beard and drags him. And this was the Sea King, the lord of all the waters of the earth. The unfortunate man began to ask and pray that the sea lord would let him go, but in return he demanded for himself something that the king does not know at home. The king agreed, not knowing that in his absence his wife had given birth to a son.

Twenty years have passed, it is time to pay the debt. The king and queen cried, but there was nothing to do - they said goodbye to their son forever. Ivan Tsarevich came to the seashore, he sees - twelve doves are flying. They flew in, hit the ground - became girls of indescribable beauty and ran into the sea to swim. And their feathers remained lying on the shore - you can’t distinguish them from shirts! Ivan Tsarevich took and stole a shirt from one of them.

The girls returned, eleven turned into doves and flew away, but the twelfth, the most beautiful, could not find a shirt. Ivan shouts from behind the bushes:

Beauty, if you marry me, I'll give you your feathers, no, I'll burn them!

Nothing to do, she agreed. Then the prince came out and handed over the shirt. He really fell in love with the beauty! They exchanged wedding rings, the girl said that she was the daughter of the Sea Tsar, Vasilisa the Wise, and she would meet Ivan in the underwater kingdom, and flew away after the sisters.

I.Ya.Bilibin. Vasilisa the Wise and the Sea King. 1931

Ivan came to the underwater kingdom, and the ruler is angry that the prince did not come for a long time. I even wanted to execute him, but the prince showed Vasilisa's ring: I'm your son-in-law, you can't kill me! - the Sea King and hands dropped.

Nothing to do, played a wedding.

Nothing, - the Sea King says to his advisers, - sooner or later I will eat Ivan anyway, and I will reason with my daughter so much that she will forget nonsense.

Vasilisa the Wise overheard this, and at night she and the prince secretly left the palace, mounted frisky horses and rushed away from the underwater kingdom to holy Rus'.

The sea king found out about this and rushed in pursuit.

I hear people's talk and a horse top, - says Ivan.

This is the chase for us!

Vasilisa the Wise turned horses into a lake, the prince into a drake, and she herself became a duck. The Sea King rode up, immediately guessed who these drake and duck were, hit the ground on the cheese and turned into an eagle to kill them. Yes, it wasn’t there: it would just scatter from above, and the duck and drake would suddenly dive into the water. The eagle will scatter again, and they will dive again. You won't take them! The Sea King was tired, waved his wing - and flew to his kingdom without salty slurping. And Ivan Tsarevich and Vasilisa went to holy Rus' and lived happily ever after in the capital city.

M. LOMONOSOV. "PETRIADA"

Beyond the reach of mortals,
Between high flinty mountains,
What we used to call by sight shallows,
A valley stretched out covered with golden sand:
Pillars around his huge crystals,
On which beautiful corals twined around.
Their heads are made of twisted shells,
Surpassing the color of the arc between thick clouds,
What does the thunderous storm show us when it is tamed;
Platform of asp and pure azure,
Chambers from one carved mountain;
The tops under the scales of the great fish are mounds;
Headdresses of the inner cover of the craniocerebral
Of countless beasts in the depths of possibility,
There is a throne - pearls studded with amber,
On it sits a gray-haired Tsar like waves.
In the bays, in the ocean stretches his right hand,
He commands the waters with a sapphire scepter.
Royal clothes - purple and linen,
That strong seas bring him before the throne.

SEA DEEP - AROUND THE EYE

The Deep Sea - Around the Eye - a beautiful, poetic image of the Ocean-Sea, endowed with special, magical properties, mind and soul. It is akin to the ancient Greek deity Argus - a thousand-eyed, all-seeing giant, personifying the night sky, which is reflected in the mirror of the seas, forever captivating people with beauty.

RASHING BOGATYR

There lived a Novgorod hero Vasily Buslaevich. He did not know where to put his heroic power.

Such was his squad.

Once Vasily Buslaevich sailed "across the sea to green meadows." He sees - lies in front of the Sea Abyss - Around the Eye.

Vasily began to walk around the Sea Depths, with a morocco boot to kick her ass.

She looked at the hero of the Novgorod Sea Deep - Around the Eyes:

Do not kick me, - he says, - otherwise you will be here yourself!

The squad of Buslaevich was funny, the warriors of the Abyss began to jump: every single one jumped.

Vasily jumped - jumped twice, but inadvertently touched the Abyss with the toe of his right foot ...

Then the last hour of death came to him - The abyss swallowed him up!

After a long voyage to overseas lands, the merchant Sadko returned with his faithful retinue to Lord Veliky Novgorod. Suddenly, in the middle of the boundless sea, Sadko's ships stood up as if rooted to the spot! For three days and three nights a storm rages around them, a hurricane breaks the masts and tears the sails, but the ships do not move from their place!

- What kind of wonder is this? Isn't the sea king angry with us?- the team asks Sadko.

Sadko comes out on deck and shouts into the heavens ringing with lightning

- What angered you, king of the sea? Tell!

Hears Sadko

- For three years and three months you have been sailing on my seas, and you have not paid me any tribute or duty for all this time!

He ordered Sadko to collect a barrel of pure gold and throw it into the sea!
The storm has intensified!

He ordered Sadko to collect a barrel of pure silver and throw it into the sea!
Even closer, lightning strikes the ships from the sky!

He ordered Sadko to collect a barrel of loose pearls and throw it into the sea!
The waves shake the ships so that they turn over in no time!

Collects Sadko's team and makes the following speech:

- Apparently I have no other way, how to bow to the sea king! Give me a pen and paper, I will write you a will - to whom, how many of you, my faithful friends, will my wealth go, and I myself will sit on an oak plank, take a fiery harp with me and jump into a violent sea, but do not remember me dashingly!

As soon as Sadko jumped into the violent sea, it immediately became quiet! Sadko sees - his ships sailed with a faithful retinue and soon they disappeared from his eyes. He himself fell asleep on an oak plank in a sound sleep.

When Sadko woke up, he saw that he was in a rich palace! And before him is the king of the sea.

- Hello, Sadko, merchant of Novgorod!
- Hello king of the sea! What made you angry?
- For three years and three months you have been sailing on my seas, and you have not paid me any tribute or duty for all this time!
- As I heard these words from you, I threw into the lush sea a barrel of gold, a barrel of silver and a barrel of loose pearls. Didn't you see?

The king of the sea laughs.

- Look around - how much gold / silver I have! And with my loose pearls, I could buy all the goods in Veliky Novgorod and all the goods that float into it.
- What do you need?

-I heard that you are a great master of playing the harp, and repairing disputes! Wake up my sleepy kingdom - I will leave you alive!

Sadko took the fiery harp, struck the ringing strings, magic music poured out. Sadko sees - all the inhabitants of the kingdom of the sea started dancing. And the sea king himself does not sit still - he dances.
For three days and three nights Sadko tirelessly plays on the harp harp, and the whole sea kingdom walks in a dance with a shaker.

Suddenly he sees Sadko in front of him an old man.

- What are you doing Sadko?- asks the old man
- But don’t you see the old man, I’m playing the harp, the sea king wished to have fun!
- But do you know that from this dance on the sea there has been a great commotion for three days and three nights! Many ships went down! Stop playing your goose!
- And then how can I get out of the sea king?
- The king of the sea will decide to leave you at his own amusement, and will offer you to marry, and you will have a great choice! Do not choose the first three hundred brides, and do not choose the second three hundred, and do not choose the third three hundred, but choose for yourself a simple girl, Chernava. She will lead you out of the sea kingdom.
- And what is your name, old man?
- Nikola Mozhaisky
- answered the old man and disappeared into the water, as if he was not there!

Sadko tore the sonorous strings on his harp. Magic music doesn't sound anymore. The king of the sea and his whole kingdom stopped dancing. The stormy sea calmed down. The king asks Sadko:

- What did you stop playing, Novgorod guest?
- Broke the strings, king of the sea!- Sadko answers
- Yes, you made me happy- says the sea king - Consider you won this dispute - your life will remain with you! Only you will still remain in my kingdom, you will play on the guselka, amuse us. And so that you do not get bored - I decide to marry you. Here are the three hundred best beauties of my kingdom for you to choose from!

- Did you like someone, royal gusliar?- asks the king of the sea?
- Sadko answers.

He sees Sadko - unwritten beauties in the outfits of the rich swim in front of him! You can’t take your eyes off them, others look straight into the heart.

- Did you like someone, you are my fabulous singer?- asks the king of the sea?
- I don't see my wife here Sadko answers.

The king orders the other three hundred beauties to bring.

He sees Sadko - unwritten beauties in the outfits of the rich swim in front of him! You can’t take your eyes off them, others look straight into the heart.

- Did you like someone, you are my magician- asks the king of the sea?
- I don't see my wife here Sadko answers.
- You gave me a task! I'll have to sink another three hundred ships, but find you a bride to your liking!
- And did you show me all in the sea kingdom- asks the king Sadko - maybe some kind of maids or other simple duvushki you have?

The tsar orders ordinary girls to bow Sadko out. Sadko looks at one of them and feels how her home blows from her!

-What's your name, girl?- a Novgorod merchant approaches her - Isn't it Chernava?
- Chernava- the girl answers - The old man told you the truth - if you choose me, you will be at home tomorrow! Tell the king to escort us to our chambers without delay!

He takes Sadko Chernava by the arm and leads him to the sea king.
- Here's my fiancé! Let the king of the sea with his wife go to the chambers, I'm tired of visiting you!

Sadko and Chernava went to their quarters.

- Now go to sleep- Chernava tells him - don't think about anything else!

Sadko fell asleep soundly, and he woke up in his wards, in Novgorod. He sees Sadko - Chernava is nearby, and at the table his whole squad

- Welcome back Sadko- They say - all your goods were delivered to Novgorod intact!

After that, Sadko no longer traveled to overseas countries. And in memory of this journey, he erected a church in honor of Nikolai Ugodnik in Novgorod.
