A few weeks back, we gave you a voyeuristic glimpse into the insane world of Russia’s elite children. Today, thanks to our friends at Neatorama, we’re taking you on a time-traveling adventure that looks at inhabitants of the opposite end of the financial spectrum — the peasants of 19th century Russia. From a boy peddling his hand-carved abacuses to a group of women posing outside of their wooden hut, find a collection of William Carrick’s most fascinating portraits of everyday life after the jump.
