called Vasily Zvyozdochkin. He carved the dolls in a block of
wood and used the picture of Sergey Malyutin, who was a crafts
painter at the time. The wooden dolls are decorated with
traditional Russian patterns. The dolls' cultural heritage is from
ancient Russian culture and traditions. Russian artists use
patterns such as the sun, birds or flowers that we often see on
clothes. The Matryoshka dolls usually represent a woman from
the countryside dressed in a traditional Russian costume.
Flowers are often painted on the doll's aprons because they are
a symbol of love and motherhood for the Russians. Some of the
patterns on the Matryoshka dolls are complicated so they have
to be done by highly skilled craftsmen, who pass on their skills
to their children. Nowadays, fewer people are making
Matryoshka dolls so there is a fear that there will be no one left
to make them in the future.
