This is a spacious carving representing a scene from wolves' life. The two wolves in the front are carved fighting, as separated sculptures made of wood, they are placed on a stand attached to the moose antler.
This is a composition depicting a sudden encounter of a huge bear and a boisterous and bold Laika (Russo-European Laika, a "barking" dog), one of the favourite hunting breeds with Russian hunters.
Это композиция изображает внезапную встречу огромного медведя и смелой лайки (русско-европейская лайка, «лающая» собака), одной из излюбленных охотничьих пород русских охотников.
This is another version of one of my favourite compositions the center of which is 2 mooses fighting. Cut carving technique allows to make the carving light and the atmosphere airy.
Every version of this composition is not a simple repetition of the same subject but a new treatment of the scene and the material as every new moose antler dictates the forms and movements and carving lines and techniques to be applied.
