I was inspired by work of my father - Alexander Rukavishnikov, named "Goliath". The Philistine giant, unlike his rival, never enjoyed the special love of artists. Goliath was neither a king, nor a sage, nor a saint, but only a soldier of perishing civilization, doomed to perish himself. His name, like the names of millions of soldiers before and after him, had every chance of remaining unknown - do not bring his death such loud glory to his winner.
