View to the Ivanovsky Monastery from the ice of Siversky Lake in twilight. The Svitochnaja tower is seen. Just before the Poland invasion in 1610 walls of the Monastery were added by one more level. In 1630 there were more additions. In 1633 section of walls (to the right hand of Svitochnaja tower) collapsed and was fully reconstructed afterwards. The wall to the left of the tower was added by controfors but remained in initial shape.
