An effigy, consistent with a traditional Maslenitsa doll, stands prominently in a snow-covered outdoor environment in Plast, Russia, under an overcast sky. The doll, facing forward, features a white, spherical head with drawn blue eyes, black eyebrows, red cheeks, and red lips. Its blonde yarn hair is visible beneath a semi-circular headdress adorned with red, yellow, and green floral patterns. A green scarf is tied around its neck. The effigy wears a long-sleeved, reddish-brown garment with outstretched arms. A light teal ribbon is tied around the left elbow. The torso section of the dress exhibits a reddish-brown and yellow floral pattern. Several small, white rectangular paper tags, possibly containing written text, are attached to the chest, along with a green beaded necklace. A light purple ribbon separates the torso from the skirt. The multi-layered skirt features a reddish-brown and yellow floral pattern, partially covered by a panel of blue and white floral fabric. Numerous lengths of twine hang from the waist, each decorated with multiple colorful satin ribbons tied into bows, including shades of green, blue, yellow, and fuchsia. The effigy is anchored in a circular impression within the white, undisturbed snow covering the foreground. Behind the doll, low, snow-dusted dark green bushes are visible. In the midground, several tall, dark green coniferous trees stand against the sky. The background reveals a street with a parked white car, various low-rise buildings (some with red roofs), utility poles with overhead wires, and streetlights. Pedestrian crossing signs are also discernible. Distant, indistinct human figures are visible on the street, and colorful flags or banners are present in the far background, suggesting a public area.
