Easter eggs

The Egg shaped form has always been a popular media in Russian Art. This tradition goes back to 800 a.d., when Russia adopted Christianity. The egg is the beginning of live, and for centuries, iconographers have carved eggs from wood to paint icons. This tradition is still alive today, although the art itself has become more and more divers.
Today, you can find all kinds of artwork implemented on the eggs - from icons, to fairy tales, to churches and portraits.
