Description:

This fascinating Fedoskino box was painted by Victor Tretyakov. His diversity as an artist announces itself. We feel for his characters. The soft elegance of his palette creates a mood that captures our imagination. A distinct example of authentic Russian artistry.
Painted in the style of classicism this scene must be an interpretation of some canvas-on-oil painting. It shows amusement of the high society. Ladies and gentlemen dressed in elegant attires sit in the sitting room and listen to the pianist playing the piano.
The authenticity of the moment is composed in stunning fashion. Rich palette of different tones and shades is used to paint the scene is the realistic manner. The faces of the characters, their costumes and the interior of the sitting room are especially detailed. Tretyakov's mastery in lacquer miniature painting is so high that he could catch mood of the listeners, their admiration by an enchanting music.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. The sides of the box are decorated with two parallel gold lines. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The lid is hinged from the top of the composition, and the box rests flat. The Fedoskino "troika" insignia can be found on the interior of the lid. The box is signed with the artist's name, village and year (2003). An excellent example of art work identifying with the human condition.
