Gorodets Painting Children Wooden Bench

Description

Gorodets painting is a traditional Russian art form that gets its name from its ancient city of origin, which was founded on the banks of the Volga River by Yuri Dolgoruky in 1152. Bright, lacquered Gorodets paintings feature different scenes, pictures of horses, or floral patterns, and are done using free strokes, with the images then outlined in black and white ink. The wood used to make Gorodets products comes from the forests right outside the city. This decorative Gorodets bench offers a direct link to authentic Russian culture!
