These are the real pages that my mother tore out of the family album to take with her to the evacuation, wrapping them in a bag to protect them from the snow: there was a critical lack of space and time. Here you can also see a map of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which led to the second evacuation for my mother at the age of 85. And at the age of 5, she went to the evacuation accompanied by her mother, Natalia Romanivna Krzyżanowska (Polish descent). It is Natalia Romanivna who is looking at us from these photos.
Price 260 euro, without framing.
