Description: This magnificent work was painted by the outstanding Fedoskino artist Pavel Anokhin. It is painted in the style which is unusual for Fedoskino School of miniature painting. To a great extent it is close to the style of surrealism.
The work is called Scamp/or Runaway, and shows a puppeteer who manipulates an inanimate object: a puppet.
The mask is off, it is on a floor, now the person will show you his REAL face,and the first who will it that will be two women-puppets that are on the same stage...rebel...
Like many of Anokhin's creations this work carries a hidden philosophic idea. This idea is expressed in following: threads are not chains, threads hold you tenderly, be careful and don't break with your creator.
The box is constructed out of paper-mache. Dark blue lacquer covers the exterior and cream lacquer covers the interior of the box. The box has a hinge to its top and rests on four rounded metal legs. A small gold metal knob is attached to the lid's side for easy of opening. The work is signed with the artist's name.
