This box continues Dmitry Tipyakov's “animal theme”, and shows the white polar bear painted at the background of the Russian Arctic Research Station. The work is called “The Conquered Arctic”. Painting with a very thin brush, and using only grey tones of oils the artist has achieved the effect of pencil drawing.
The scene is framed with a gold line; the box's sides are decorated with two parallel gold lines.
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. A hinge is fastened to the top of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name, the title, and the year of 2008.
