St. Petersburg: Rus muz, 2004. Sewn cl. More than twenty research articles show us how extraordinarily rich and varied are the strains of folk art that have flourished for centuries. The sheer size of the country, the great number of ethnic traditions, and the long winter lull in agricultural work were propitious to the folk art. Wood carving, murals, icon-painting, lacquer miniatures, lace, embroidery, metalwork and toys are among the topics the authors present. 182 p., 29 cm, approx. 100 color illus., Rus. Item #4266
