A serious nod to an iconic folk art.<br />I especially liked it that visitors could leave the gift shop with a copy of The Art of the Russian Matryoshka, the definitive account of the history, villages of making, fabrication, styles, artists, and notes on collecting. I especially liked it that those books were available because I co-wrote and produced the book.<br />Rick HibberdRick Hibberdhttp://www.vernissagepress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837430116521631858.post-3333967391540533862009-11-29T10:24:58.615-06:002009-11-29T10:24:58.615-06:00What a hoot that they've got Yeltsin, Putin, B...What a hoot that they've got Yeltsin, Putin, Brehznev, et al!<br />«Louis» would have left Stalin out, regardless of his historical importance...Louis la Vachehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09039777863022193315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837430116521631858.post-69522500540589576482009-11-29T09:54:39.766-06:002009-11-29T09:54:39.766-06:00They are adorable, I bought some adorable Russian ...They are adorable, I bought some adorable Russian dolls when we visited Moscow.<br />Beautiful post!<br />LéiaCezar and Léiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14408385000169533010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837430116521631858.post-73673918040704062732009-11-29T08:23:41.315-06:002009-11-29T08:23:41.315-06:00It's an awesome museum for sure, and I am so h...It's an awesome museum for sure, and I am so happy that you have brought attention to it.
