Матрёшка (уменьш. от имени «Матрёна», восходящего к латинскому слову «Matrona» — знатная дама, мать семейства) — русская деревянная игрушка в виде расписной куклы, внутри которой находятся подобные ей куклы меньшего размера. Число вложенных кукол обычно шесть или более. Почти всегда они имеют овоидную ("яйцеподобную") форму с плоским донцем и состоят из двух частей - верхней и нижней. У них нет рук (они просто нарисованы). По традиции рисуется женщина в сарафане, хотя внутри может быть и мужчина. Самой маленькой фигурой, которая уже не раскладывается, является ребёнок. Темы для росписи могут быть очень разными: от сказочных персонажей и до политических деятелей.

Матрёшка является одним из самых популярных сувениров для иностранных туристов в России.

Возникновение матрёшки

Точная история происхождения матрешки неизвестна. Самое правдоподобное предположение — русский мастер изобразил славянские образы или понятия из сказаний. Существует предположение о том, что матрешка имеет японские корни.

Изобретение формы русской матрёшки приписывается токарю В. П. Звёздочкину в 1890-х годах, а автором первой росписи был профессиональный художник С. В. Малютин. Из воспоминаний Звёздочкина следует, что ему не доводилось видеть японских точёных игрушек.[1] Кроме того, ещё до появления матрёшки русские мастера изготавливали деревянные пасхальные яйца, которые были разъёмными и полыми. Таким образом, вопрос о прямой преемственности между японской и русской матрёшкой остаётся и требует более пристального изучения.

В 1900 году М. А. Мамонтова, жена С. И. Мамонтова представила кукол на Всемирной выставке в Париже, где они заработали бронзовую медаль. Вскоре матрёшек начали делать во многих местах России.

Также в Семёнове, на художественной фабрике «Семеновская роспись», в 1922 году появилась на свет традиционная русская семёновская матрешка, которую сегодня знает весь мир. В 1970 году на выставке «Экспо-70» в Токио была представлена самая большая когда-либо изготовленная матрешка: 72-х местная.

A matryoshka doll, also known as a Russian nesting doll or a babushka doll, is a set of dolls of decreasing sizes placed one inside the other. The word matryoshka (Russian: матрёшка) is derived from the Russian female first name Matryona (Russian: Матрёна). The word babushka (Russian: бабушка) is the Russian word for grandmother.

Design

A set of matryoshkas consists of a wooden figure which separates, top from bottom, to reveal a smaller figure of the same sort inside, which has, in turn, another figure inside of it, and so on. The number of nested figures is traditionally at least five, but can be much more, up to several dozen with sufficiently fine craftsmanship. Modern dolls often yield an odd number of figures but this is not an absolute rule; the original Zvyozdochkin set, for instance, had an even number. The form is approximately cylindrical, with a rounded top for the head, tapering toward the bottom, with little or no protruding features; the dolls have no hands (except those that are painted). Traditionally the outer layer is a woman, dressed in a sarafan. The figures inside may be of either gender; the smallest, innermost doll is typically a baby lathed from a single small piece of wood (and hence non-opening). The artistry is in the painting of each doll, which can be extremely elaborate.

Matryoshka dolls are often designed to follow a particular theme, for instance peasant girls in traditional dress, but the theme can be anything, from fairy tale characters to Soviet leaders.

History

The first Russian nested doll set was carved in 1890 by Vasily Zvyozdochkin from a design by Sergey Malyutin, who was a folk crafts painter in the Abramtsevo estate of the Russian industrialist and patron of arts Savva Mamontov. The doll set was painted by Maliutin himself. Maliutin's design was inspired by a set of Japanese wooden dolls representing the Seven Lucky Gods. Maluitin's doll set consisted of eight dolls—the outermost was a girl holding a rooster, six inner dolls were girls, the fifth doll was a boy, and the innermost was a baby.

In 1900, Savva Mamontov's wife presented the dolls at the World Exhibition in Paris, and the toy earned a bronze medal. Soon after, matryoshka dolls were being made in several places in Russia.

Themes

During Perestroika, the leaders of the Soviet Union became a common theme depicted on matryoshkas. Starting with the largest, Mikhail Gorbachev, then Leonid Brezhnev (Yuri Andropov and Konstantin Chernenko almost never appear due to the short length of their respective terms), then Nikita Khrushchev, Josef Stalin and finally the smallest, Vladimir Lenin. Newer versions start with Dmitry Medvedev and then follow with Vladimir Putin, Boris Yeltsin, Mikhail Gorbachev, Joseph Stalin and then Vladimir Lenin.

Modern artists create many new styles of nesting dolls. Common themes include animal collections, portraits and caricatures of famous politicians, musicians, "robots" and popular movie stars. Matryoshka dolls that feature communist leaders of Russia became very popular among Russian people in the early 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Today, some Russian artists specialize in painting themed matryoshka dolls that feature specific categories of subjects, people or nature.

Areas with notable matryoshka styles include Sergiyev Posad, Semionovo (now the town of Semyonov), Polkholvsky Maidan, and Kirov.

As metaphor

Matryoshkas are also used metaphorically, as a design paradigm, known as the "matryoshka principle" or "nested doll principle". It denotes a recognizable relationship of "object-within-similar-object" that appears in the design of many other natural and man-made objects. Examples include the Matrioshka brain and the Matroska media-container format.

The onion metaphor is of similar character. If the outer layer is peeled off an onion, a similar onion exists within. This structure is employed by designers in applications such as the layering of clothes or the design of tables, where a smaller table sits within a larger table and a yet smaller one within that.
