This gorgeous box has been painted by the outstanding Fedoskino artist, Sergey Golubyonkov (1960), whose unique works you can come across looking through many catalogues on the Fedoskino lacquer miniature painting.
Here the artist has painted his own version of the famous masterpiece "Boyarynya Sitting at the Window" originally painted on canvas by Konstantin Makovsky in 1885. This work is exhibited in the Omsk Region Art Museum after M.A. Vrubel.
Golubyonkov has managed to entwine wonderfully the realism of Makovsky with the magical beauty of Fedoskino miniature. He has used gold metal paint to accentuate richness of the boyaryna's costume.
The luxuriant gold ornamentation detailed with brown oils applied with a very fine brush can be found wrapping around the box's sides.
The box is made out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. The lid is hinged from the top of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. Signed with the name of the artist, and the village of Fedoskino.
