Yesterday I went to Solianka gallery to see the paintings and sketches of famous Soviet animator Leonid Shvartsman. His active years were 1950-1990 and our childhood was coloroured by his amazing drawn cartoons and dolls cartoons. In the underground floor they show non stop the best and most popular cartoons.
The place was very bad lit, so I could not make the overall photos. So I post the 15cm (4,5") doll from the exhibition and the photo of the interior door ("And for men, too" is written on small piece of paper. Looks like they forget about men. Or lost the plate).
About exhibition (in Russian) with several images of his cartoons.
And Shvartsman's cartoon "Mitten" on Youtube.
