This composition of a wild boar against a forest background is carved into the moose antler. The feeling of the animal's movement is the focus. The trees and the roots are carefully worked at.
Different tinges of brown make the animal and the background stand out, this effect is achieved by colouring and burning.
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.
