<h1Matryoshka dollsBeautiful image of "Russian Nesting Dolls" in street fair, found and photographed in Budapest by Marcosleal (and used here with permission.)"Matryoshka" (Матрёшка) is a derivative of the Russian female first name "Matryona", which was a very popular name among peasants in old Russia. The name "Matryona" in turn is related to the Latin root, "mater" and means Mother. So the name is closely connected with motherhood and in turn the doll has come to symbolize fertility.
