Summary/Abstract: The study is based on the personal observations and archive of the author from a twenty-year study of the Bulgarian frescoes and of the author's research as a compiler and publisher of the three original Bulgarian Hermeneias by Dicho Zograf, Zachari Petrovich and Varban Kolarov (Sofia, 2016, 2017, 2017). All three Hermeneias quoted, but especially those of Zachariy Petrovich, testify to the enviable iconostasis of the icon-painters. They have documented their in-depth knowledge not only of traditional local dyes but also of West European dyes and technologies, as well as of a Table of Symbols of the German Alchemist and Doctor Johann Joachim Becker, 1689, symbols whose names we meet in the Hermeneia of Zachari Petrovich. The following aspects of the subject are considered, supported by quotes by Didron, Uspensky, Dicho Zograf, Zachari Petrovich and Varban Kolarov:Guardians of the secret book of the icon - the Bulgarian monks in Mount Athos, Saints-icon-painters and icon-painters-saints, The specifics of the Holy Craft, Herminists as mentors in the faith, Herminists as patriotic teachers.
