This winter landscape has been painted by Dunaev from the village of Fedoskino. All elements of the composition depicted here including the wooden peasant hut, the small white stone church, the sky and especially the trees wrapped in white snow are skillfully and realistically painted.
Blue and white tones suitable for the depiction of a winter scene dominate here. A large piece of mother-of-pearl creates the depth of the sky and the brilliance of sun rays fighting through dense gray clouds.
The composition is framed with elegant wavy gold patterns. The exterior of the box is covered with original ornamentation composed of light and dark brown spots that resembles the shell of a turtle. The interior of the box is traditionally red.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. The lid is hinged from the top of the composition, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name, the village of Fedoskino, and the year of 2005.
