Russian Fairy Tales

Many Russian lacquer boxes illustrate Russian fairy tales. Actually maybe "folk tales" is a more appropriate term since Russian tales have no fairies. Whatever you call them, knowing the story always makes you appreciate the artwork on the doll or box all the more.

Here are a few translated summaries of some of those tales.
