Russian Zhariza




How modern Zhariza would look like?

Allegoric images of beautiful female characters from Russian fairy tales and art works of Russian artists always appear in either melancholic or in dependent way.

If we will take as an example illustrations and art works of Victor Vasnetsov (1848-1926) we will see, that female characters mostly will be melancholic and in need of saviour.

In this fotoshoot we wanted to show modern Russian beauty, not suppressed by patriarchal vision of female character or body, but strong and at the same time fragile, unique and powerful woman behind an image of cold beauty.
