Russian Provider’s Calendar
One Russian Internet provider has issued a calendar.
The main idea that was used in the calendar was the pictures from the famous artists edited in such way that main heroes of these pictures are now zebras.

As most pictures are from Russian artists, I suppose we need some clarification. First is the original name of the picture, second is the name in the calendar by Zebra Telecom we see here.
February
“D-grade again”/”Regional manager sales report”
March
“Boyariness Morozova” (historical character; opposed the state in the reformation of Orthodox Church and got sent to Siveria for that) / “Departing to the presentation of annual report”
May
“Morning in the pine forest” (there should be a family of bears, not zebras)/”HR training”
June
“Slaves on Volga”/ “Zebra employees installing optica data network in Volga region”
September
“Helen” (character of a fairy tale, whose small brother got turned into a goat and was taken away by a witch)/ “The sorrow prize of an office manager”
The other ones, to my mind are not actually worth explaining =(
November
“Catherine the Great” (originally Austrian, plotted against her husband Emperor Peter III and ruled the country throughout the period of immense growth and prosperity og nobility)/”Employee of the month”
When I got to the Volga River Workers painting I burst out laughing.
Brilliant!
Was anyone else thinking they looked like Moomins?
so cute.
Second painting was hilarious! they look like moomins as ralph said.
Какой мудак перевёл “бурлаки” как “slaves”? Сам ты slave.
