content: The slava is an anniversary feast celebrating a saint's day. By holding the feast, the celebrant or celebrants fulfill pledges to the saint as thanks for help given, usually in cases of illness. Each candle on the table represents the participation of a celebrant's family. The accordionist at the rear is probably Misha Tsiganoff.
