Exceptional illustration tothetale
from Ural Mountains tells us about the skilled artist Danila,
a stone carver, who dreamed about creating a flower from
malachite and other semi-preciousstones, and the flower
would look like a real one. In order to get such skills
he left his family and went to the underground kingdom
of the Emperess of the Copper Mountain. Lacquer
boxes from Mstera village, usually have the lightest colors.
Artists there almost never choose black for their backgrounds,
and instead use light blue, pink, gold or ivory colors.
With the addition of these colors, landscapes generally
play a more prominent role in Mstera works, and people
and objects tend to take a place within the background
setting rather than remain separate from it. In Mstera,
a wide range of artistic talent exists. While some artists
paint dynamic and elaborate scenes from fairy tales or
famous battles, others concentrate on exquisite floral
designs.
