25 February 2015, WednesdayIn autumn 2014 The Bolshoi Museum and the Russian museum of Ethnography (Saint Petersburg) made a successful exhibition in Belfast (Northern Ireland, UK). The project showed and told the history of Russian national costume and its stage evocation. Now any web-user all over the world can see this unique collection. The Bolshoi Museum contains more than 3000 costumes, about half of which were used in productions based on Russian folklore. The most interesting and original items have been included into exhibition. The Bolshoi Museum presents photos of the scenes and set design sketches as well, so you could imagine the costumes in context of the performances.
