Description: The well-known Fedoskino portrait painter, Alimpiada Dokuchaeva, is the creator of this wonderful box. In her works Dokuchaeva tries to paint correctly and realistically individual features of his characters, and also to express their psychology and mood. Here she has painted poor musicians who are trying to get pennies for a food.
Dokuchaeva has finished Fedoskino Art School. She is married to another popular Fedoskino artist, Yugeniy Dokuchev. Both Mr. and Mrs. Dokuchaevs are specialists in a portrait genre.
The scene is framed with a gold line; two parallel gold lines can be also found wrapping around the box's sides.
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. A hinge is fastened to the top of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name.
