Description: Renowned Fedoskino painter Dubovikova Galina has crafted this exquisite portrait of a young Girl in traditional Russian attire.
This portrait is a version of the famous painting “Boyarinya bearing a tray”/or "A Jug of Honey" painted by Konstantin Makovsky. Works dedicated to a peasant way of life were very popular in 19th century in Russia. The world-famous Russian painters Tropinin, Argunov, Alexeev and many others created their masterpieces on this theme.
The portrait is framed with a gold line; two parallel gold lines wrap 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 box has a hinge from the left of the scene, and rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed by the artist.
