Opis

What did it mean to be Russian as the imperial era gave way to Soviet rule? The author turns to a unique art form produced in the village of Palekh to investigate how artists and craftsmen helped to reshape Russian national identity. This book follows the development of Palekh art as it adapted to dramatic changes in the Russian nation.
