Description
The puppet theatres were very important in the cultural development of people building their national identity.
These puppets from all over the world, were in the Museum in Chrudim, east of Prague. housed in a beautiful building. Hugely interesting.
Thank you for recent comments..Jean

Strange is this world of puppets. But after, in theatre, they are resurrected. Well done!

Ah...talk about cultural identity...puppet theater is distinct in that particular part of the world and it has worked its way into more aspects of life than one might expect; it's gotten to the point where I feel a particular something in relation to puppets, rather like an adopted national pride. Great work.
