The edition is the most extensive report about the expedition to Mount Athos organized by a number of Russian scholars of the Russian Academy of Science in 1898. The edition belongs to the best examples of "archeological travels" and investigates architecture, mural of Athos Monasteries, icon painting, church plate, embroidery and miniatures in manuscripts of Athos. The descriptions are followed by information on the history of analogous monuments situated outside Athos, first of all in Russia.
