Description:

This peaceful scene was painted by talented Fedoskino artist Alexander Kozlov.
The composition is painted in different shades of green. The lawn in the foreground is light green, the trees in the background are emerald, whereas the trees in the foreground are dark-green. Aluminum powder enhances the color and makes the lacquered surface of the box shine brightly. To create the depth of the composition, the artist paints the trees in the foreground distinctly, whereas the trees in the background are painted vaguely.
The composition is simple in its structure: many paths run down from the hill on the top of which the bench under a luxuriant tree is depicted. In spite of its simplicity, the scene is rather philosophic. Looking at it, the viewer may think about the people who've sat on this bench and about their destinies.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The edges of the lid and the sides of the box are decorated with intricate gold patterns. The lid is hinged from the top of the composition, and the box rests flat. The Fedoskino "troika" insignia can be found on the interior of the lid. The box is signed with the artist's name.
