Bird cherry tree

This original piece of genuine Russian artistry was composed by the talented Vladislav Maslov. It shows Bird cherry tree in time of it's blossom. 
The dominated colors are very soft and the tonality is subdued to convey the late Spring. The artist uses gold paint to accent the composition and make a viewer want to be attracted to it. Every detail is delicately manipulated for a great overall effect. This painting is full of life and a zest that Fedoskino artists are masters at bringing out of their work.
A piece of mother-of-pearl shines as a moon under the trees.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. The edges of the lid are bordered with gold-green-blue lines and the box's sides are decorated with beautiful leaf pattern , which painted against the violet and golden brown colors of the sides. The interior is completed with red lacquer. The lid is hinged at the top of the composition and the box rests on the vawy platform. The work is signed with the artists name, title and village on a small piece of mother-of-pearl which glued on the lid's interior.
