"Fallen Princesses"
Have you ever noticed that the cartoons of Walt Disney have virtually nothing in common with the true meaning of fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm or Hans Christian Andersen? Happy endings, much less marrying a handsome prince to the accompaniment of friendly forest-minded little animals are very rare. As a rule, none of these tales can include dealings of injury or permanent death. In her project: "Fallen Princess", Canadian photographer Dina Goldstein attempted to return the tales' brutality, moving bright Disney Princesses with you into our dimension. What would be the fate of all these beauties if they were subject to the commonest life of most ordinary women?
