Pavlovo Posad Shawl: A Russian Traditional Dress in Winter Roses

The Pavlovo shawl register

The Pavlovo Posad shawl is printed wool with big roses on a black or red ground and a fringed silk edge, worn over the head and shoulders against the cold. The pack takes it into winter Suzdal: white monasteries and onion domes under snow, wooden houses with carved window frames. Black is the shawl's ground and rose red its flowers, with snow white and the domes' blue as the values.

The frames are photoreal in soft snow light: a wooden house's carved blue window frame in snow with the shawl back from the face, the roses and fringe in close view, and on a snowy field the monastery walls and starred domes of Suzdal behind her.

How to photograph yourself for a Pavlovo shawl portrait

Soft light off snow is the best light for the wool roses.

1. Soft, even lightStand in open shade or snow light. Flash flattens the print.
2. Eye levelCamera at eye height, facing it.
3. Shawl clear of the eyesLet the shawl sit back so the face and the fringe both read.
4. A calm lookA quiet expression suits the winter setting.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the Pavlovo shawl in these photos?

The printed wool shawl with big roses on black, its fringed silk edge, and the winter setting of Suzdal's snow and carved wooden houses. Each of the nine frames keeps these pieces.

Is this a pattern pack?

No. Pavlovo patterns for printing are a separate pack. This one shows the shawl worn in a winter portrait.

Are the pictures real-looking photographs?

Yes. They are photoreal portraits in snow light, not paintings.

Is the person in the photos real?

The figure is composed, not a real person. You choose to cast your own face into it, and no real person is named or depicted.

What if my photo is dark or blurry?

Use a clear, evenly lit photo of your face. A blurry source softens the likeness, so retake it first.

Will the photos look like me?

Every photo looks like you, well photographed. If one is nearly right, say what to change, in your own words.

Do I have to write a prompt?

No. There is nothing to write: you pick a pack, and it is ready in seconds.

How many photos of myself do I add?

Between six and twenty, from different days and in different light, with your face clear. We check each one when you add it.

What happens to the photos I add?

They are used only to create your model, on our own servers in the European Union. They are not shared and not sold.
