Description: This box is a creation of Anzhela Mikhalyova from the village of Fedoskino.
The magical beauty of Russian countryside has been beautifully captured in this exquisite miniature. An old Wooden Bridge is connecting the two banks of a small river.A small fisherman's boat is kept at the tree on a right side, and there is the white-stone medieval Cathedral to the left of the composition.
The entire scene is painted on a piece of mother-of-pearl that shines through the painting. The trees painted in the foreground shimmer brightly as they are drawn in radiant gold paints. Some other trees and plants are also highlighted with gold and brown paints.
The scene is framed with a wide gold line.The golden leaves that decorated the sides of the box are looks like just brought us with a fall wind.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. A hinge is fastened to the top of the composition. The box rests on a flat bottom. It is signed by the artist at the bottom of the scene.
