Medvedeva from the village of Fedoskino is fond of birds, and has created a series of works painted on this theme. Here she has depicted a beautiful forest bird sitting on the maple tree. The noble blue feathering of the depicted bird contrast beautifully with the delicate, peach background and the orange maple leaves. Aluminum powder shines in the middle of the scene to focus the viewer's attention on the depicted bird.
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 lid is hinged from the left of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The edges of the lid are decorated with a simple gold pattern. The work is signed with the artist's name, and the year of 2008.
