Tonya will be heading to Russia soon. Apparently there is a Sierra game development studio in that country and she will visit with them to create a behind-the-scenes video. What’s Russia known before besides Communism, cold weather and vodka?Well, Matryoshka dolls of course!
From Wikipedia:
A set of matryoshkas consists of a wooden figure which can be pulled apart to reveal another figure of the same sort inside. It has in turn another figure inside, and so on. The number of nested figures is usually six or more. The shape is mostly cylindrical, rounded at the top for the head and tapered towards the bottom, but little else; the dolls have no hands (except those that are painted). Traditionally the outer layer is a woman, dressed in a sarafan, holding a rooster. Inside it contains other figures, possibly of both genders, usually ending in a baby who does not open. The artistry is in the painting of each doll, which can be extremely elaborate.
Matroyoshkas are often designed to follow a particular theme, for instance peasant girls in traditional dress, but the theme can be almost anything, ranging from fairy tale characters to Soviet leaders.
Tracy spent a couple of weeks in Russia after an exchange program during college and picked up a Matryoshka doll that’s displayed prominently in our house.People often ask if it is really from Russia
