This is an old photo, but it's not *that* old.

Elena, one of the two younger sisters of my paternal Grandmother, Tatjana was an actress in the Soviet Union.

Here's another snapshot of Elena, in character:

Moscow, Russian Soviet Socialist Republic, about 1966. Elena writes, " A film about the life of Rus’ [Old Russia] in the sixteenth century. I am an aged mother. I am awaiting the warriors who were to return after a battle for Rus’."

Thanks to my dear friend D for translating the text from Russian to English.
