The Spring Fun

Famous Master Vladimir Molodkin of Mstera, who painted this piece, has a very distinct style that can immediately be recognized by the minute details and his color usage. The palette incorporates a myriad of bright paints from the cool and warm ends of the spectrum. He uses them in perfect harmony, alternating tones and hues in all the right places. Almost every element of the composition is abundantly detailed with gold paint!
The work is called Spring Fun and shows all kinds of entertainment and fun that villagers do in Spring.
The box is made out of paper-mache. Black lacquer covers the exterior and red lacquer covers the interior of the box. Molodkin decorates the exterior with gold ornamentation and flower ornament can be found on the edges of the lid.
The box has a hinge above the major scene on a lid and rests on four feet. The artist writes the title and his signature at the edge of the lid.The name of the work is signed over the gold and the name of the artist in blue colors below the floral ornament.
