PHOTO ESSAY OF THE WEEK: UKRAINIAN AMAZON GIRLS

May 4 2009, 2:44pm

This week, we bring photographs by French photographer Guillaume Herbaut who traveled Europe in search of Amazons and found them in Karpati, Ukraine. Ukrainian "Amazon girls" practice hand-to-hand and knife combat, dress in national clothing, and sometimes you may find them wearing a picture of Yulia Timoshenko on their chests. Brought to us by klub-des-8 via the fail_art community. Brought to you by RUSSIA!
