About chocolate Alenka (6 photos) Bashny.Net

There was one artist, Honored Worker of Culture of the Russian Federation Alexander Gerinas

In 1960, he took a picture of his eight-month daughter Lena in a headscarf and published this photo in the magazine «Health» №1 for 1962 eight hundred thousandth edition.

Once there was a factory "Red October". And she gave the order to create a batch of chocolate milk for the young. We created, called "Alyonushka" because they wanted to issue it with a picture of Vasnetsov. But a look at the Old Town Square the most optimistic painting artist and twisted his finger to his temple Coy anyone.

Then there began to invent. We decided - let the chocolate will "Alyonka 'and girls' faces will be made out for the holidays.

And I would like to look into the eyes of someone who has released version of the cemetery in 1976.



By branding then treated, yes, specifically. But still I wanted, so in the newspaper "Evening Moscow" announced a competition for the best design of chocolates. People actively participated, but Alexander won Gerinas. According to the official version, he sent his Alenka like all, but somehow it happened that he was working with the press photographer on the "Red October" (Yeah, we were the factory photographers).

Photo Lena Gerinas artist redrew Maslov, making Alenka blue-eyed, slightly changing her mouth, pulling a little oval face, slightly increasing the upper lip and so on. D. That in 2000 saved the "Red October" by paying adult Elena Gerinas (KDPV on it right) of 5 million rubles.

Elena then filed a lawsuit on the recognition of "Alenka" his image, which is required for such compensation. The first examination recognized this fact, and the second - no. Court in 2002 rejected the claim, noting that the figure is a collective manner, and independent creative product rather than redraw the photo.

This brown-eyed Jewish Alenka with her husband and children live in the Moscow suburb of Khimki and never repatriated. Walkers in internetikam photo with another woman "Alyonka" even more fun, but the real Alyonka to do.
