The famous Kholui artist Yevgeniy Dobrin painted this beautiful box. It shows various scenes from the Tale of Princess Frog. In the middle of the composition we can see Ivan Tsarevich sitting in the marsh. His arrow has landed near a frog, and now he is destined to marry it. From the right of the central scene the artist has painted Ivan's brothers who launch arrows at different direction in the quest for their brides. The scene that is painted from the left of the central scene shows that the arrows of Ivan's brothers have landed near the houses of rich and beautiful maidens.
The composition is brilliantly painted in Dobrin's signature style. The palette is rich and beautiful but predominance is given to Dobrin's favorite emerald green tones. Some of the details are enhanced richly with gold paint. Gold is also used to paint gorgeous ornaments that decorate the box's exterior.
The box is constructed out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. The lid is hinged from the top, and the box rests on four legs. At the bottom of the composition painted on the lid Dobrin has written his name, the title, Kholui and the year of 2007. Inside the lid, he has again provided the title, Kholui, the year of 2007, and his name, as well as an indication that this is an original work. The finishing touch is a cursive signature to finalize this Kholui miracle.
