Art of the Russian Matryoshka
Rett Ertl and Rick Hibberd.
The Art of
the Russian Matryoshka is a comprehensive, wonderfully illustrated
book on Russia's most famous export: Matryoshka nesting dolls. It covers their history, how
and where they're made, the different style, and some of their
better-known creators. Rett Ertl uses his thirty years of
experience in Russia to present information in a straightforward
and engaging style, even combining the story of nesting dolls into the
history of Russia's development. He concludes that these are not
simply dolls within dolls, but themes within themes, much like life
itself. Beautifully illustrated in full color. 240 pages, large hardcover with
dustjacket. Table of contents and synopsis
