Description:

This brilliant example of Fedoskino realism has been created by well known Master,Shavirin Boris. It features a group of hunters, falconers, guy with Borzoi dogs, Boyars gethering together on the edge of the forest preparing for a hunt.
Falconer is a post in the household of Grand Princes. Falconers had to supply game to the tsar's court and got some benefits therefore. In the background we can see an open space, like a field and a tent.
The faces of all characters are expressively and distinctly painted. Their costumes reflect the fashion at the times of Ivan the Terrible (the 16th century). The skillfully painted horses is another proof of the artist's talent. Undoubtedly, this box may adorn any collection as it deserves attention of any lacquer miniature enthusiast!
We can find two pieces of mother-of-pearl in the clothes of the coat of a falconer to the right and to a Boyar to the left of the composition. Needless to say, that all the fur coats are richly decorated with gold.
The edges of the lid and the box's sides are richly decorated with intricate gold patterns. The exterior of the box is covered with black lacquer, while the box' interior is traditionally red.
The box is made out of paper-mache made. The box has a hinge to the top of the composition and rests on the four legs. The box is signed with the artist's name, the village of Fedoskino, and the year of 2021.
