Above is a capture from Russian stop motion animation, "Old House",
based on a Hans Christian-Andersen Tale, directed by Irina Sobinova-Kassil.

This image is from the astonishing paint-on-glass film,
"СОН СМЕШНОГО ЧЕЛОВЕКА" by Alexander Petrov / Петров
(1992) based on the short story
"The Dream of a Ridiculous Man" By Dostoevsky
this film stirs memories of the intensity I felt when I first read
Dostoevsky in translation as a teenager:
