This genuine piece of Russian artistry is a masterful representation of natural beauty. Yelena Aldoshkina of Fedoskino is the talent responsible for this brilliant work. Being enchanted with the beauty of Russian nature in winter, she has managed to express here a peculiar charm of Russian countryside.
The scene is painted in white and light blue oils suitable for reproduction of a winter evening. Aldoshkina uses layers to create a sense of depth and the illusion of three-dimensions on this painted surface. Her master-like skill, coupled with her originality combine to create intensely beautiful works like this.
The piece is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the work while red lacquer completes its interior. The scene is framed with a thin gold line. Another thin gold line can be found wrapping around the box's sides. The lid is hinged from the top of the scene, and the box rests on a flat bottom. The work is signed with the artist's name and Fedoskino school.
