From: Wassiliewa, Galina (estate) :Photographs relating to life and ballet career of Galina Wassiliewa in Lithuania and Wellington.

Reference: PA1-f-216

Description: The photographs relate to the lives of Galina and Wassili Wassiliew, though most relate to Galina. There are many Ranten family photographs, most from the mid 1920s to ca 1940, but a few dating from the early 20th century and possibly the late 19th century. Throughout these Galina can be traced from a baby to a teenaged girl. Most of these are probably those photographs missing from the earlier family albums. There are a few photographs showing the students and teachers of the Lithuanian State Ballet School, 1939 and 1940, which Galina entered in about 1933 when she was eight. Other ballet photographs are of productions in Lithuania and Germany. A number show Galina when she was in Germany and Austria during the 1940s. Some of these show her with friends or collegues in European cities or outside theatres. The balance of the photographs show Galina, her mother and Wassili after their move to New Zealand. Most of these are of their domestic lives. There are few photographs of her New Zealand students or ballet productions. Lithuania, and especially the capital city, Kaunas, feature in a number of coloured postcards. Others show theatres, probably in Germany or Austria. There is also one hand drawn and coloured anti-semetic postcard with postmarks dated 1926 Quantity: 1 album(s) Album(s).
