Summary/Abstract: The church “St. Nicholas” in the Bachkovo Monastery is the first fully painted church by Zahariy Zograf. The mural ensemble includes 18 life scenes dedicated to the saint. A study of their iconography reveals interesting details about the composition and origin of the subjects. Zahariy Zograf, and later his brother Dimitar Hristov, used the well-known Svetogorsk stamp from 1793. There are also scenes he reinterpreted and incorporated the additional characters and details. The life cycle of St. Nicholas from the church in Bachkovo Monastery is an illustration of the creative possibilities of the young painter and his later confirmation in our national art.
