Description:

Alexander Smirnov of Kholui is the artist who painted this interesting box.

This box is quit simple, but very attractive. The palette the artist uses is based on warm colors: green, yellow with addition of gold paints.
Here the artist has depicted two fishermans who fished with a large net.We can easy recognize a large pike that they catch!
