Description: This box is a creation of a talented artist Konstantin Danshin from the village of Fedoskino.
Konstantin was born in the city of Dmitrov, in 1968. His father is a professional musician, a member of the State Symphonic Orchestra of Yu. Svetlanov. Konstantin's father managed to inculcate in his son a taste for art. At the age of fourteen, he enrolled Konstantin in an art school. In 1983, Konstantin entered the Fedoskino Art School, where he studied under V.N. Frolov, N.G. Marchukov and V.D. Antonov. Now K. Danshin's works are exhibited in different museums in Russia and all over the world. His works are very popular among the collctors of the USA, England and France.
Konstantin is fond of animals and birds, especially cats. He has a large series of the cat's works, but this one is shows two jumping leopards.
The work is very detailed.The colors depicted here and the quality of the painting are giving us an illusion of the three-dimensional view and photo-like quality!
The scene is brilliantly painted in the realistic style. The scene is framed with a gold line while the box's sides are decorated with two parallel gold lines. The box exterior's sides imitates the coloring of blue marble (tiny black veins are scattered against the light blue background). The interior is traditionally covered with red lacquer.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. It has a hinge to the top of the scene, and the box rests flat. The work is signed with the artist's name and the village of Fedoskino.
