Внезапная встреча
Данная композиция изображает внезапную встречу охотника с собакой и огромным медведем в глубине леса. Сюжет навеян творчеством известного русского художника-натуралиста В.Горбатова.
The composition is not complex, however, it represents a scene treated by many men of word and fine arts - a howling wolf. Here relief carving is applied and the background - of a tree and a night sky with a bright moon standing high behind the tree branches - is made with the help of toning.
This composition was made applying the technique of relief carving and cut carving. The dimentional effect is achieved thanks to the figures of the animals which are made of wood as separate sculptures.
