Once I started to think about the overall composition of this story, I realized that the main sticking point to my idea would be the type of painting that a historical Vasya would leave after himself. It should be something very simple that Vasya can do quickly and easily, but most importantly it should be something that wouldn’t provide any artistic or symbolic value and wouldn’t tell any story. This could be a poke of a spear, or a drawing of a cross, or, oversimplified schematic drawing of a person, that obviously be not a part of the previous composition.
