There are many photo shoots of older people that show the power of time over the human body. But it's not just humans that age. Animals, too, do not change for the better over the years. Photographer Isa Leshko decided to capture them in old age, showing that old age does not make anyone happy. The eyes of animals are especially impressive in this photo shoot.

Noble old age: Russian old women-aristocrats in the paintings of the XIX century
People grew up and grew old at all times, and among the noblewomen of the Russian Empire were not only young conquerors of officers' hearts who shone at balls. From comfortable chairs, from offices, from quiet living rooms of noble houses, old women, or, rather, elderly ladies, watched the tumultuous life of children and grandchildren, from time to time plunging into memories that often turned out to be much more valuable to them than the vanity of the present. Did the noble grandmothers of former Russia differ so much from those of today?

Photo project "Animalia": animals are not people, and people are not animals
Imagine an empty, empty city where there is not a single person. Empty houses, workplaces and public places, empty streets and parks. There is not a single human soul. No life. Rather, there is no human life, but there is an animal
