Description: The name of Sergey Rogatov is familiar to any lacquer miniature artist. His works are on display in various museums and lacquer art books.
Here the artist depicted a surreal summer landscape. The midday sun shines brightly, casting its rays on the winding river, and its picturesque banks. The splendor of Russian countryside with its white stone cathedrals and vast expanses of forests and fields is sensitively expressed here.
The scene is painted in delicate and light green oils. Mother-of-pearl is set into the sun to create its brilliance,
The scene is thinly outlined in gold. The edges of the lid are adorned with a wavy gold pattern. An intricate gold tartan pattern decorates the box's sides.
The box is constructed out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. The box has a hinge above the scene, and rests on a flat bottom. Signed with the artist's name and the year of 2006.
