The original matryoshka , 1892 
Matryoshka doll refers to a set of wooden dolls of decreasing size placed one inside the other. The first Russian nested doll set was carved in 1890 by Vasily Zvyozdochkin from a design by Sergey Malyutin, who was a folk crafts painter at Abramtsevo. Traditionally the outer layer is a woman, dressed in a sarafan, a long and shapeless traditional Russian peasant jumper dress. The figures inside may be of either gender; the smallest, innermost doll is typically a baby lathed from a single piece of wood. Much of the artistry is in the painting of each doll, which can be very elaborate. The dolls often follow a theme, aside from the typical traditional peasant girls, the themes vary, from fairy tale characters to Soviet leaders. - Wikipedia

Several Russian politicians depicted
 in matryoshka form.
 
Matrioshka, a boneca russa, é um brinquedo tradicional da Rússia, constituída por uma série de bonecas, feitas de diversos materiais, que são colocadas umas dentro das outras, da maior (exterior) até a menor (a única que não é oca). A palavra provém do diminutivo do nome próprio Matryona.
O número de figuras que se conseguem encaixar é, geralmente de 6 ou 7, ainda que existam algumas com um número impressionante de peças. A sua forma é simples, mais ou menos cilíndrica e arredondada e mais estreita na parte superior, onde se situa a cabeça da boneca. Outra característica que diferencia as diversas peças são as figuras que encarnam: desde figuras femininas vestidas com trajes tradicionais campesinos, a personagens de contos de fadas, até aos antigos líderes da União Soviética. - Wikipedia
