Об исполнителе:
Nicolas Ossorgin (1924-2014), professor at the Theological Institute of Saint-Serge and choirmaster of the parish church of Saint-Serge-de-Radonezh in Paris. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Nicolas Osorgin's whole life was connected with the estate at 93 rue de Crime, better known under the Russian name "Sergius Compound" ("compound" or "Saint-Serge's monastery"), which was transferred to him during his purchases, in 1924, by Metropolitan Evlogii. Nicolas Ossorgin was the second son of M. M. Ossorguine (1887–1950), a former officer in the cuirassier regiment of the Empress and marshal of the Kaluga nobility, and Countess Helene Muravieva-Vilenskaya (1893–1968). His parents emigrated after the Russian Revolution and the defeat of the White armies in the Crimea, first to Constantinople, then to Germany, and finally to Paris. On July 18, 1924 (on the day of the feast of the uncovering of the relics of St. Sergius of Radonezh according to the Julian calendar), Michel Ossorgin, on behalf of Metropolitan Evlog, acquired from public auction on behalf of the Metropolitan, property at 93 Crime Street, in Paris.
