Description:

This splendid scene of Snowmaiden was painted by a talented artist Zayakina Olga from the village of Fedoskino. Of course, collectors who are familiar with the works of Oleg Shapkin and Boris Shavirin will say that this is a enterpretation of their works. Even so, the work is of outstanding quality!
The box shows Snowmaiden strolling in the Winter forest and feeding a bird. The palette incorporates blue and white oils as the action takes place in winter, with addition of gold and silver metal paints to give a feeling of magic and splendor.br The artist demonstrates his unsurpassed skill while painting the Snowmaiden's festive attire. Painting with an ultra fine brush, she creates exquisite gold lace texture of her fur coat, stand-up collar and crown. The effect of festivity is strengthened by a piece of mother-of-pear inlaid into her costume; it shimmers beautifully with bright green and blue tints. Another piece of mother-of-pear is shining through the beautiful hat-set (cocoshnik).
The branches of trees covered with white fluffy snow, that are also expressively painted.
The scene is framed with a floral golden ornament; more complex golden floral ornamentation wraps around the box's sides.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the piece while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. The lid is hinged to the left from the composition, and the box rests flat. Signed with the artist's name, Fedoskino and the year of 2019.
