Description:

Country side didn't expect the Winter so fast.Small boats are still in the river.The part of river with a slow flow is already iced, the biggest part of the river is still pushing the water down...
Do you remember how silent the nature after the snow fall?
Talented Fedoskino artist Boris Shavirin has tried to get his emotions after the first snow into the painting on the little lacquer box. And I guess he succeed!
On this lacquer box we can see a view to a small village from the river.Wooden peasants houses, located on the bank of the river are covered with the first heavy snow. The artist masterfully with the aid of golden paint showed us a sunset. Some of the trees and a small house that turned to a sun are shinning in the last rays of today's sun.
To achieve the gloving effect, the artist has used two pieces of mother-of-pearl-the one is shining through the ice on the river, and the other one is through the white stones of the Church and the skies above it.
The sides are decorated with a rich gold ornament, which for the first time in lacquer miniature was used by the famous Fedoskino family tandem -Shapkin and Kareva.
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 composition, and the box rests on a flat platform. The work is signed with the artist's name, Fedoskino and the year 2012.
