Very different from War and Peace, indeed. Thanks for sharing!
I am guessing the Contax.

Thank you Julio (yes Contax IIa) and Santiago.
Last serie, made before the previous Contax IIa one but taken to the lab later.
Done with Voigtlander Superb and its Anastigmat-Skopar, I took the camera to a friend here for the shutter problem and he recommended me to use a very think grease to hold the helicoids during the shutter release, in fact he gave me some from his own made 35 years ago by another camera technician, it worked but not 100% still happening but the shutter can be folded quiet much better, in the following photos is only saw in one of them, so better than the previous shootings, now this camera has earned a place in the selves.
I overexposed the photos a little, much better results than with previous calculations, thanks guys! I really like this old Skopar.
If you saw the movie 'Burnt by the Sun', there was a reenact showing this epoch as the girl painting in previous post.
Breakfast ready.
More from the Currassiers
Boots and rifle.
Reflexion.
Rose water preparation.
Breastplate.
And last two from the c. XIX tailor shop.
Negligee c. XIX.
Dressing up.
Thats it, next year it will be another one I think, I hope to be in Moscow and have time, rolls and good weather to share everything.
I hope you enjoyed the tour, thank you for watching and comments.

I think you covered the event quite well, Alex, and with multiple cameras at that. Not the easiest thing to do.
