Description: This box was painted by the talented Palekh artist Myznikov Evgeniy.
It shows a scene from the hunt on a wild boar. Here we can see two hunters- one is on a horse, the other one have his rifle ready, hididng between the trees in a forest. The dog is also helping the to take the attention of a boar on her.
The work is a good example of intricate Palekh art. The greens and blues become electric, the reds and oranges passionate. Hair thin gold and silver accents have been used extensively throughout the composition adding rich luminescence and delicacy to the piece.
The box's exterior is decorated with intricate gold leafy patterns.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the piece while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. .
The lid is hinged from the top, and the box rests on four smal round feet. The artist wrote his name and the village of Palekh in the bottom of the composition in gold paint.
