Avital,
I'm not sure exactly what it is, whether a headdress of some sort or just a
close up of a section of another garment. The text for the entire page
translated with the babelfish program is:

 "Unforgotten crafts In Moscow in the gallery of " [Belyaevo]" is from
November 28 to January 15, 2009 past the exhibition of " Not forgotten of
[remesla]". Great interest causes the particular collection Of
[s].[Glebushkina] - suits of the 19th Century. On the exhibition were
represented traditional textile dolls, flap panels, author's clothing."

Not the clearest translation! However, other pages dealt with quilts and other
textiles, this page seems to be historic costumes.

On the subject of stupid (or at least arresting) questions,  a dozen years or
so ago when I was starting a piece of floral Bucks that was wwaayyyyy out of
my league, my sister looked at the tangle of bobbins and threads, the forest
of pins, and the stack of scribbled notes and questions I had written and said
"Elise, since you obviously WANT a headache, wouldn't it be faster and easier
to just hit yourself in the head with a brick?"
But my favorite was from a woman I used to work with. She had once seen a
pillow with pricking and bobbins intact in an antique store. When she saw mine
she remarked that my materials were missing the same thing. When I asked her
what she thought was missing she said, "You know, the motor part that actually
moves all the threads around to make the lace."  Well, I keep looking, but I
have never yet found the magical motor part that will move all my bobbins to
make the lace!
