Propagation of a narrow beam in a periodic Kerr medium is analyzed for an arbitrary relation between the beam width, modulation period, and optical wavelength. Maxwell's equations used to obtain solutions describing spatial optical solitons, and their basic properties are determined. The results are compared with those obtained by solving the paraxial nonlinear Schoedinger equation. Conditions are found under which these models are mutually inconsistent.
