Having picked up the book of Olga Mironova and turning it over, you will plunge into the world of ritual dolls for a while. Someone believes that in the modern lifestyle, these dolls are nothing more than the decoration in the house. Someone timed to the creation and donation of dolls for some important holiday, for example, a wedding, and then the doll can no longer be called simply decorative.
Of course, these dolls are not ritual in the sense of what our ancestors endowed with. But you can’t call them useless trinkets. And if we take into account that to this day the process of creating dolls partially retains archaic elements, then we call them rituals, since they are strikingly different from secular dolls intended for everyday games in the mother daughter. These dolls accompanied our ancestors all their lives from birth to old age. The echoes of these traditions we will try to save in our time.
Perhaps the master classes on the dolls of this book will stir up in you the desire to create any of them on your own and settle in your house as a guide symbol. In the book you will find detailed descriptions of each stage in the creation of dolls.
The book is of interest to a wide range of readers who are fond of folk art
