Transmundane Tuesdays with @carsonellis . Two headed, holding a snake, wearing a skirt with a beautiful pattern. I started thinking of the two headed eagle. From there it wasn't so much as a leap to Russian fairy tale, but a small hop. #twoheadedinaskirtwithasnake  #transmundanetuesdays #russianfairytale #kidlitart #twoheadedeagle  https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsjKzABMry/?igshid=1ovy63x6ob5t

I spent the evening with some russian folk tales. Fascinating, sometimes dark, sometimes hilarious. But actually I‘m reading too fat books at the moment and you will have heard of both of them before. Soon I may talk about an irish classic. . #русский #народнаясказка #сказка #красивый #читать #литература #оченьинтересно #посадка #цветник #книги #russianliterature #russianfairytale #folktales #fairytale #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #instabook #gayswhoread #guyswhoread #igreads #nature #instagood #photooftheday #russischemärchen #märchen #leseempfehlung #literatur #bücherliebe

Link to my shop.⁣ https://mistysworldboutique.etsy.com ⁣ This is a painting from 1880 titled "The Flying Carpet" by Russian artist Viktor Vasnetsov. He was known for his paintings from Russian folklore.⁣ ⁣ It shows a scene from the Russian Fairy Tale "Tsarevitch Ivan, the Firebird and the Gray Wolf". Tsarevitch (Son of the Tsar) Ivan is the main character of a number of Russian Fairy Tales. In this one, he sets out to catch the firebird for his father. After screwing up a few times, he succeeds. ⁣ ⁣ In the version shown in this painting, he is assisted by a witch named Baba Yaga who gives him this magical carpet, and we see Ivan riding it, with the firebird in its cage. ⁣ ⁣ Baba Yaga is well known in Slavic folklore. She travels above the thick forests in a mortar while propelling herself with a pestle. That seems like a very uncomfortable way to travel, and I have no idea why she'd do so if she had a flying carpet at her disposal.🤷🏼‍♀️⁣ ⁣ When most people think of flying carpets, they think of Middle Eastern Tales from the Islamic Empire. Their history goes back further though.⁣ ⁣ Two separate stories credit King Solomon with having one. In one, such a carpet was a gift from the Queen of Sheba, and in another, a carpet capable of carrying 40,000 men was a gift from God. ⁣ Obviously such a device would make a good weapon, and by some 2nd Century accounts, King Phraates II of Parthia used one to rain down fire on his enemy, Antiochus.☄️ I have no idea how he got the fire up there with him.🔥⁣ ⁣ In another story, Shapur, 3rd Century ruler of the Sassanian Empire used such a carpet to sneak into a Roman camp and abduct Emperor Valerian, who was killed in captivity. ⁣ ⁣ Lots of people associate a magic carpet with "Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp," but the original tale had no carpet. The story was only added to the "Thousand and One Nights" in the 18th Century, by Antoine Galland, French scholar and Ambassador to Constantinople. He wrote that he'd heard it from a Syrian storyteller in 1709. In the original story, when Princess Badroulbadour and her bridegroom were kidnapped on their wedding night, they were carried through the air by the genie of the lamp, on their wedding bed.🛏🧞‍♂️🪔

Finished up this little watercolor sketch. Inspired from an image that is said to come from a Russian Fairy tale called “Crown of Life”. So far I have not found this fairy tale and I don’t know the name of the original illustrator. Swipe to see original. (if you are lacking inspiration and like detailed costumes, dark mysterious forests, princes and princesses, witches, dragons, beautiful birds and much more — then google “Russian fairy tale”) #crownoflife (hmmm there are many crown of life hashtags!) #russianfairytale #russianillustration #russianillustrator #aquarelle #watercolor #watercolour #fairytale #rainbow #color #colorful #painting #artistsoninstagram #instaart #instaillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/BtbWAzvgtnT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hiau2mt9kmtr

Oh man this is my latest Tales of book and I can't WAIT to get the remaining ones. I've been looking forward to reading these stories, especially Momotaro and the Moon Child story. A surprise favorite is probably The Jellyfish and the Monkey and The Old Man Who Made Withered Trees to Flowers. Oh, and in case you guys are wondering, yes, old stories from Japan are just as weird as what I read from Celtic and Nordic Tales. Like some of these were just so weird that I couldn't help but laugh. I very much recommend these books so you know what the original stories were like before retold by the Brothers Grimms and Disney. Enjoy these stories. QOTD: What's your favorite tale from these books if you've read them? If not, what's your favorite from the Brothers Grimm? #KimmersBooks #Bookstagram #FantasyBook #BookLife #Book #AmReading #Fantasy #Mythology #TalesOf #ToJ #TalesOfJapan #CelticTales #NordicTales #RussianFairyTales #OldTales #FairyTales #FaerieTales #MagicalBook #BooksAreMagic #BooksAreMagical #BooksOfIg #BooksOfInstagram #ReadersOfIg #ReadersOfInstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CQeTQCur_Mn/?utm_medium=tumblr

Не могу налюбоваться на своих русалок. Идея съедала меня давно, а когда я случайно предложила @okunevamaria_photo снять это, она горячо меня поддержала. И теперь у меня есть весьма волнующие воспоминания этого лета. Мои компаньонки-русалки @kassysarcastic и @_just_l_ I can't get enough of those photos. I carried thus idea for a long time and when I told my friend about it she hole heartedly support me. And now I have those exiting memories of summer past. #rusalka #mavka #navka #russiangirl #russianfairytales #fairytalephotography #fairytail #русалка #мавка #навка #русскиесказки #народныесказки #русалочки #русалочка #русалочьисказки #улукоморья (at Khakassia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHKukvUA_ak/?igshid=v1k2wvpdzp8w
