Description:
This splendid piece created by one of the best Mstera artist Daniil Molodkin shows several scenes on Novel "A Little Prince" written by Antoine de Saint Exupery.
The palette is full of vivid colors that are used to boldly render the setting and the characters within. Many tones from the spectrum are used, which creates a dynamic background and a visually appealing foreground. The gold not only pulls the eye closer to the composition, it helps bring out the true aesthetic nature of the combinations of color found in the scene.
The composition is outlined with a line of gold paint, and precise and tightly wound gold foliage pattern. Similar though expanded gold foliage pattern adorns the sides of the box.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Black lacquer is used to paint the exterior of the box while red lacquer completes the interior of the work. A hinge is fastened to the left of the scene, and the box rests on legs. The work is signed with the artist's name, Mstera, the title and the year of 2011.
