Yvgeny Charushin's works on postcards.


One of my favorite shops on ETSY is SharonFosterVintage.
Shop, where you can always find a large selection of Russian postcards.
Most of all I like the postcards with Evgeniy Charushin's works.
Evgeniy Charushin is the best Russian animal painter
and is my favorite children's books illustrator.

The pup. Yvgeny Charushin.

For the first time this pup appeared in the book "Shaggy guys" in 1933,
where the drawing was tricolor and without the fir tree and the mushroom.
