By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/types-of-pre-revolutionary-russia.htmlSince the 60s of the nineteenth century, several photographers from Moscow and St. Petersburg have worked on creating a photographic series of "Russian Types": portraits of peasants, working citizens, artisans, street vendors, and so on.
