MSTERA Russian folk art craft, miniature painting with tempera paints on lacquerware.  The center of the Mstera Miniature is the urban-type settlement of Mstera, Vladimir Region.  From the end of the 17th century until 1917, the population of Mstera and other villages of the Vyaznikovsky district of the Vladimir province was engaged in icon painting, which was famous for the subtlety of pictorial techniques.  In 1923, icon painters from Mstyora organized the Artel of Old Russian Painting, turning to the decoration of wooden turned products (salt shakers, nesting dolls, boxes, and others).  In 1926, the Proletarian Creativity, an industrial cooperative artel (from 1931 Proletarian Art; from 1960 a factory) was created.  By the 1930s  they mastered the technology of making products (mainly caskets and caskets) from papier-mâché, borrowed from the masters of Fedoskino and Palekh miniatures.  Plots were mainly written in everyday life, folklore, historical, literary.  The Mstera miniature is characterized by the integrity of the overall tone (silver-bluish or ocher), the sonority and softness of color, the image of the deep landscape environment, the subtlety of the framing pattern, made of created gold.  Famous old masters A. I. Bryagin, N. P. Klykov, A. F. Kotyagin, A. N. Kulikov, A. M. Merkuriev, I. N. Morozov, V. N. Ovchinnikov, I. A. Fomichev  .  Ornamental compositions, still lifes, bouquets (artist E. V. Yurin) also became widespread.  Since the end of the 1960s, the art of the Mstera miniature has turned to the search for decorativeness, since the 1980s - to the creative implementation of the ancient Russian tradition.  In modern Mstyora, the traditions of icon painting and restoration work are also being revived.  Among the leading artists of the Mstera miniature are Yu. M. Vavanov, L. A. Demidova, N. A. Lyubomudrova, V. N. Molodkin, V. F. Nekosov, P. I. Sosin, L. A. Fomichev, N.  I. Shishakov. Condition: Used.
