Here the youngest son of the top Mstera artist Vladimir Molodkin's has his interpretation of Mstera lacquer art's traditional (taking from the experience of his father) soft pastel tones gives an unexpected vibrancy to this delightful village scene. Strategically placed deep cobalt blue creates depth behind soft pink and lilac, while subtle variations in value add to the sense of dimension. Clean, crisp lines and skillful contrasts keep the pale tones from appearing washed out, instead imparting the look of early dusk. This lacquer box by Nickolay Molodkin is about the "Russian Winter Fishing" from Russian tradition. The Biggest Fish Story is possible even in the old world. Excellent details and the color is very good.
Size: 7.5 by 5 by 1.25 inches.
