Description: Postcard «Crimean Tatar embroidery» with 5 signatures Signed by: Vlada Lytovchenko - director of the Vyshgorod Historical and Cultural Reserve; Volodymyr Koziuk - artist, photographer, collector, local historian, philanthropist; Tamila Tasheva - representative of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea; Erfan Kudusov - Crimean Tatar public figure, head of the Ukrainian Union of Patriots – UKROP; Lyudmila Strokova - director of the National Museum of Ukrainian Folk Decorative Art. Embroidery is not just a decorative element. This is Ukrainian history, mythology, religion and the ancient art of our ancestors. Scientists believe that embroidery encodes the nation's genetic code. The embroidered shirts, rushnyks (embroidered towels) and head-cloths represent a variety of techniques and colors from different regions of Ukraine. The Autonomous Republic of Crimea is represented on the postal issue by Crimean Tatar embroidery (women's head shawl "marama", mid-nineteenth century), which is made in the traditional technique of tambour embroidery Qasnaq using metallized (gold) and silk threads on homespun. The ornamentation, color combinations and technological methods correspond to the principles of national decorative art and crafts that have been developed since ancient times.
