Table of Contents

Russian folk toys are a rich and fascinating form of craftsmanship. Although the toys in the collection of the Russian Museum date from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, their sources can be traced back to ancient times. Russian toys were traditionally made from such diverse materials as breadcrumbs, rags, straw, pine cones and bones. The most popular media were wood and clay. The leading centers of toy production in Russia were Sergiev Posad, the village of Bogorodskoe outside Moscow and Dymkovo in Vyatka. This book reproduces all the works from these world-famous centers of traditional Russian crafts, in color as well as enlarged details showing the artists skills and technical mastery.
