M. Vysnetsov "Vityaz on the crossroads", stood before choosing. Modern person is accustomed to perceive the story discretely, from the event to the event. He is immune to the language of the star clock, bellped with a bell tower and interfering with extensive zones of the clutch, during which agriculture forms, climatic conditions, habits in everyday life, language, faith are changed. Therefore, there are two stories.
