Info Boris Kustodiyev. Maslenitsa. 1919. Oil on canvas. 71x98 sm. Maslenitsa (Maślenica, also known as Butter Week, Crepe week, or Cheesefare Week), is an Eastern Slavic religious and folk holiday. It is celebrated during the last week before Great Lent—that is, the eighth week before Eastern Orthodox Pascha (Easter). Maslenitsa corresponds to the Western Christian Carnival, except that Orthodox Lent begins on a Monday instead of a Wednesday, and the Orthodox date of Easter can differ greatly from the Western Christian date.

Oppose - For a painting this big, a bit more resolution is necessary to get my support. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:35, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
