		And Sadko stopped his playing for a moment to pluck a string, and his was the string that had been cut in half.
		And as they kissed, Sadko saw a necklace round her neck, and knew it for one he had thrown into the river as a present for his sweetheart.
		And in the middle of the night Sadko happened to turn in bed, and he touched the Princess with his left foot, and she was cold, cold, cold as ice in January.

	RusFilm-2002: Sadko
		Ptushko's "Sadko" brings to life a virtual catalouge of narrative devices, plot twists, and cultural values that have characterized both popular and high culture throughout Russian history.
		Sadko himself is a curious but familiar mixture: a musician–merchant–warrior whose particularly Soviet-style social conscience is fully and harmoniously integrated into the portrayal of a genuine national folk hero.
		Sadko's final realization that true happiness is to be found at home coincides with the Russian understanding of rodina, an idea harmonious with but never fully coopted by the Soviet State.

		Sadko returned to Novgorod, sighing over the tricks of a head left to sit too long in the heat of the sun.
		The merchants were amazed, but Sadko did as the King of the Blue Sea had bidden him and cast the net into the lake twice more, and each time he drew forth a tiny fish with fins of pure gold.

		Sadko returns, but he seems a bit distant and leaves almost immediately, giving his wife the opportunity to be sad some more.

		Sadko´s chosen method of intervention with digital media suits his challenge of historical narrative in an age when everything is virtually possible.
		Sadko has previously impersonated a young Napoleon, an American fighter pilot, the Marlboro man and Antonio Banderas whose copy of a Che pose for a movie poster inspired Self-Portrai as Antoino B. Sadko’s exercise expands the already large realm of unlikely sightings of the Argentinian born hero of the Cuban revolution.

	Extras ~ The Sea King's Daughter ~ About the Story
		In Russia, stories of ancient legendary heroes like the merchant-musician Sadko are preserved in epic ballads known as byliny (pronounced “BIL-lin-ee”), a term meaning “what has been.” Originally composed by minstrels between the 10th and 16th centuries, they are recited today by talented peasant “narrators,” mostly in the remote Russian northwest.
		Sadko’s story is set in Novgorod, the greatest commercial center of medieval Russia.
		Sadko himself is probably based on the merchant Sotko Sytinich, who in 1167 erected the city’s largest church, according to official chronicles.

		A second body of work, the small-scale lightboxes, are the result of letters Sadko sent to many artists requesting early photographs of them from between the ages of two and four.
