The famous Fedoskino artist Vladimir Serdotetskov created this originally shaped box. He is an expert in painting landscapes, and this beautiful winter scene proves this fact. Here he has depicted the water-mill situated on the picturesque riverbank. The white snow that covers the ground, the roofs of wooden buildings, and the crowns of trees, reflects the golden glow of the sunset. The ice on the river also shines with the sunset radiance. To create this beautiful visual effect, Serdotetskov painted this scene over the gold metal leaf inlay.
The scene is framed with a gold line. Two parallel gold lines can be also found wrapping around the box's sides; the area between these parallel gold lines is covered with blue paint of various tones and golden dust to imitate coloring of a stone.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The box has a hinge from the top of the composition, and rests on legs. Signed with the artist's name, the year of 2006 and the village of Fedoskino.
