This beautiful winter scene has been created by Dunaev from the village of Fedoskino. This artist is interested in painting picturesque landscapes; it is his favorite theme in lacquer miniature painting. Here the artist depicts three peasant wooden houses located on the edge of the forest.
The palette is cool, and dominated by blues, grays and whites. A piece of mother-of-pearl creates the brilliance of sunset in the dark evening sky. The edges of the lid and the box's sides are adorned with elaborate filigree patterns. The exterior of the box is covered with gray-bluish paints, and this coloring is supplemented with tiny silver blurry spots. 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 2010.
