Zoya will become famous soon enough
There is a display cabinet of babies' clothes, as well as children's shoes It was the bundles of hair...more hair than you can imagine, which got to me, sometimes whole plaits/braids still fastened at the end. And that was only a portion of it kept for the museum...and the felt cloth they wove from it...
