The carving depicts two powerful boars facing each other in a fight, a terrifying scene for the onlooker!
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.
This is a peaceful composition from the life of the bears, these big, fluffy and at the same time moving giants of the forest.
