Before long, Rublev was forced to return to Moscow again to create icons, but this time he saw the suffering of all Russians. The younger brother of the archduke colluded with the Tatars to usurp the throne, the residents of Vladimir were murdered innocently, the church was destroyed in the war, and the painter's eyes were full of hell... Rublev once again fell into the predicament of the contrast between art and reality. He returned to the Andronikov Monastery, closed himself completely and refused to continue painting.
After years of resistance, the Tatar army was finally driven out of Russia. In 1423, the Grand Duke invited Rublev to Moscow for the third time to paint. Under the influence of a young bell caster, Rublev finally completed the masterpiece "Trinity".
