Description: This beautiful marine scene has been painted by Iliya Buzovkin. It is an interpretation of the canvas-on-oil painting called "Alushta" painted in 1870 by Ivan Aivazovsky. Alushta is a small resort town situated in the Crimea. Aivazovsky was born, raised and eventually finished his career in the Crimea. That is why the theme of the Crimean unique nature prevailed in his art. His most popular paintings are "The Rainbow" (1873), "The Black Sea" (1881), "Wave" (1889), and "The Decuman Wave" (1850).
The scene is framed with a gold line; the box's sides are decorated with two parallel gold lines.
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 four legs. The work is signed with the artist's name, the title, and the year of 2008.
