Description: Talented artist Olga Abramova from the village of Palekh has painted this scene with a winter troika (three horse sleigh) speeding through the Russian countryside. A loving couple hide from the snowstorm in the sleigh while a driver encourages the horses.
Gold paint is used to detail the sledge, the characters' costumes and the horses' harnesses, manes and tails. Silver paint dots imitates the snowflakes on the ground. This is work is simply amazing, full of very thin details!
The scene is framed with a nice golden dot ornament.The box's sides are decorated with similar golden dot ornament.
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.
The lid is hinged to the top of the composition, and the box rests flat. The work is signed with the artist's name and the village of Palekh.
