Product Overview
Very fine museum-quality, large 5pc art doll. Finely detailed scenes from the Russian Fairy Tale, "Snowmaiden," are painted on the front side. Snegurochka, the Snow Maiden of Russian folklore, appears in scenes painted beneath cobalt-blue shawls. On the largest doll, a young Snowmaiden in pale blue stands with her parents (Mother - Spring and Father - Frost) among blue trees beneath red blossoms. On the next doll, a young woman in green surrounded by the forest. The smaller dolls show figures in a wintry landscape and a red-roofed cottage. Rows of pale dots and silvery scrollwork frame each face and scene. On the reverse, large blue flowers and lace-like patterns repeat across the rounded shawls, with a pale ornamental band around the largest doll's base. Glossy lacquer finish. Approx. 8.5" tall. Signed by the artist.
It's painted with fine detail, and great attention to colors and composition.
