I would like to share with you the works of the talented sculptor and great man D. N. Kurganov. I was lucky enough not only to talk to him, but also to meet Dmitry. He is kind, sympathetic, positive and a very smart person, when you talk to him you have only positive emotions.

Dmitry told me the story of his work with Olina Ventsel, a talented Russian artist, who worked with the projects on creation of dolls of porcelain, dedicated to various historical epochs. He was able not only to plunge into amazing world of big creative projects and to meet many amazing people with her, but he also learnt the limits of his strength when he had to work round the clock without rest in order to prepare dolls for the next show. After the death of Olina Dmitrievna, their cooperation stopped, and to this day he has mostly worked on private orders, but still strived to create beautiful things.

Unfortunately, I could not find many pictures of Dmitry's works , but I'm sure that the ones that I'll show you, will not leave you indifferent. Even without seeing a work live, I was struck by the beauty and delicacy with which they were made, and they also made me think about how much time and effort had been spent on their creation.

Each work is very striking in its beauty and attention to details. Each doll is completely handmade of porcelain. I wish you pleasant viewing.
