The Mistress of the Copper Mountain

In the depths of the Ural Mountains – the oldest in the world – numerous treasures are hidden. These are not only bright and valuable gemstones but also amazing stories that combine legends and reality. They were collected and recorded by Pavel Petrovich Bazhov, the great Ural storyteller and folklorist, while Masha Lukashkina, in her retelling, carefully conveyed the richness and melody of the folk language.

Unique and distinctive illustrations by Anteiku, specially drawn for this book, take shape in the exquisite and refined three-dimensional constructions of Ekaterina Kazeikina. The mysterious and great mistress of the Copper Mountain holds in her hands a malachite box with treasures – open it quickly!
