Description:

This lovely composition blends traditional painting techniques with folklore, a bit of traditional influence and some of Russians pagan roots. Fairy Spring isdepicted rising above the fading winter landscape, as father Frost retreats to the background on the right. As some girls do a round dance in the center of the scene, the Snowmaiden casts a flower tiara in an attempt to foretell her fate , and Mizgir seeks her on the left. The coloration and detail in the scene are superb, with the black background making the perfect backdrop. Created by talanted Palekh artist Kornilova, box is signed and dated by artist.
