This stunning box is a creation of Sergey Kovlov who is one of the leading Fedoskino painters. Here he depicts a sunny, autumn day in the old Russian town of Suzdal. The trees are covered with bright red, orange and yellow foliage. The golden tones of the grass look so beautiful in contrast with the blue sky. The medieval architecture of the white-stoned cathedrals is in perfect harmony with the surrounding nature.
The composition is painted pale grey, brown and blue tones of oils. The brilliance of the sky and its reflection on the water is created with the help of mother-of-pearl inlay. The sparkle of the grass and the trees is achieved with the help of gold paint. Gold paint is also used to paint an elegant pattern that decorates the edges of the lid. It consists of a wide band completed with tiny gold leaves.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the piece while red lacquer completes the interior of the box. A hinge is fastened to the left of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed the artist's name, Fedoskino and the year of 2010.
