Easter at the Bulgakovs


Every year, the Bulgakov Museum here in Kyiv (former home of writer Mikhail Bulgakov, author of The Master and Margarita and The White Guard)  recreates the Bulgakov family's Easter table from one hundred or so years ago,  based on a historic photo.  More blog posts on Ukrainian Easter to come, but a quick sharing of a lovely re-creation, with the paska (traditional bread at the back of the table)  and pysanky (eggs) still widely present today, and the historic photo on which it's based.
