Nadezhda Strelkina - Nadezhda comes from a well known family of several generations of artists. At the turn of the century her great-grandfather owned a lacquer box factory, "Burbyshev's Workshop", famous for painted cigar boxes, snuffboxes and goblets. The Bolshevik revolution put an end to private ownership and the "Burbyshev's Workshop" ceased to exist. However the skills of traditional craftsmanship have continued to be passed on from generation to generation, and the new Fedoskino Lacquer Painting College and Workshop were created in the late 1920's.
