That baba yaga is interesting. I associate that style with china or japan, so to see it used for slavic folk art seems odd to me.

Speaking of prints and fantasy, Jose Guadalupe Posada has some really cool, otherworldly pieces.

Like this.

Um. I don't know if that's a woodblock print or a painting made to look like one. I just really like the color on it and how detailed it looks for something so simplified. You're right though. It does look like it could be a woodblock print. Maybe it's because it might be an illustration intended for print?
