This exquisite portrait of a beautiful woman, was painted by Yevgeniy Dokuchaev of Fedoskino. He graduated from Fedoskino Art School in 1962, and in 1976 from the Moscow Higher Art Industrial College (former Stroganov School). This artist differs from his peers in that he sticks strictly to the traditional Stroganov and Fedoskino styles. This master is employed by "Russian Collection", "Sakva", is a member of the Artists' Union, and has also received the "Veteran of Labor" award.
The portrait is masterfully executed-tone, shade and light are perfect. Particularly impressive is the fine detail of the woman's dress: Dokuchaev has created the delicacy and intricacy of cloth with his brush. The precision here is astounding--every pleat and ruffle is perfect. The shading is so correct, that you would swear there was really a light shining from above.
The portrait is framed with a gold line. Two parallel lines wrap around the box's sides.
The box is made out of pressed paper. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. It has a hinge from the left of the composition and rests on four legs. The box is signed with the artist's name.
