The site itself is in Russian, but there are some great photos on the linked page, especially down towards the bottom. If you click the photo at the top center (woman in red costume in a split jump), there are more photos. (My transliteration skills are weak, but I believe that it is Natalia Osipova.)

(There's also a short note in Russian and English about Nina Alovert's new book on Malakov at the very bottom.)

Many thanks for the notice and the link, Leonid, and welcome to Ballet Talk.

Thank you for the welcome Helene. You may have also noticed on that same site that a new production of Cinderella is to be premiered on 2nd February 2006 at the Bolshoi Theatre with choreography by Yuri Posokhov and designs by Hans Dieter Schall. This production follows on(not sure if it will replace) from the 60 year old production of Zakharov in which Raissa Struchkhova(see Gina Ness posting) gave exemplary performances.
