This is a composition with quite lyrical atmosphere about it - a fawn is represented stading calmly against the background of a winter forest.
This is one of the first compositions carved by the master and it represents a moose rutting season scene. Relief carving and toning are applied.
This is a composition depicting a scene of traditional Russian hunting - the 2 borzoi dogs, a breed that is traditionally Russian and which name at once arouses our associations with Russia, are chasing a fox.
The borzois and the fox are caught in motion, between one movement and the next; and the artist made every effort to convey the sense of speed, tension, exhilaration and excitement of the chase, the grace of the borzois and the agility of a little fox.
Это композиция изображает сцену традиционной русской охоты - две борзые преследуют лису. Русская борзая - исконно русская порода, название которой сразу вызывает у нас ассоциации с Россией.
Борзая и лиса запечатлены в порыве движения; мастер старался передать ощущение скорости, напряжения и азарта погони, грацию борзых и проворство маленькой лисы.
