Abstract
We discuss the entanglement phenomenon on the example of the Smolin state of four qubits. This state is known as the bound entangled state and its spin tomogram is found in an explicit form. We apply the qubit-portrait method for investigating the violation of the Bell inequalities, since this approach provides another tool to prove the entanglement properties of the four-qubit state under consideration.
