Art Presents and Mstyora Collectables Lacquer Miniatures in Present Shop Online
Mstyora is a very old center of lacquer miniature near Vladimir and Suzdal.
This settlement was mentioned in the chronicles for the first time in 1626. In the reign of Peter I the settlement belonged to Prince Fyodor Yurievitch Romodanovsky, companion-in-arms of the tsar and head of the Preobrazhensky department, and was called the Bogoyavlenskaya Sloboda.
Since the 18th century icon-painting became the leading trade of this village. The icon-painting style of Mstyora was determined by the tastes and demands of the old believers not of the Moscow region alone, but also of the Urals, Siberia, Zavolzhie (the Volga region) and Pomorie (coast area). Different groups of the old believers had different style requirements which made Mstyora masters imitate various icon-painters.
In the 19th century the settlement was named Mstyora. The indigenous inhabitants claim that the name derives from the Russian word "mastera" - masters.
Local master-craftsmen made icon mountings for churches and monasteries. It laid the groundwork for the local jewelry art employing the technique of filigree known in the time of the Kiev's Russia.
Many talented artists lived here in the 1700s, so many different kinds of folk art arose here such as an icon painting, gold and silver embroidery and engraving.
Artwork with a delicate miniature pattern was developed in Mstyora before the revolution, along with the famous Vladimir stitch with a massive ornament.
Now, Mstyora is center of Russian folk handicraft of lacquer miniature painting, which is done with tempera paints on articles mostly made of papier-mache.
The Mstyora miniatures usually represent scenes from real life, fairy tales, folklore, literary and history works.
Special place in Mstera painting takes icon painting. As it has some specific features. This tradition was held by Byzantine art, the successors of which were first and foremost the Vladimir and Suzdal icon painters.The Byzantine technique of painting with flux and Byzantine icon painting was preserved in Mstera for many centuries, right up until the start of the 20th century.
Carpet decoration, variety and refinement of picturesque tinges, which contain with general tone of all composition are typical peculiarities of Mstyora's miniature painting. Warmth and gentleness of colors, depth of landscape backgrounds (often with blue dales in the back), small size and squatness of human figurines, and subtlety of framing pattern done in gold are typical for the Mstyora miniature. Colors gamut of Mstera's artists is blue-silver or yellow-red. Sometimes artists of Mstera are painting their works by only one ornament (pattern from grass, leaves and fruits).
Masterpieces of Mstyora artists are well-known around the world. They were awards by Gran-Prix, the gold and silver medals on the world exhibition. The Art of Mstyora is represented in the collections of the biggest museums in Russia (Russian Museum, Tretyakov Gallery) and in the world. Our online present collection of art propose to you such birthday or anniversary present ideas as icons, lacquer miniatures, wood vases and art tableware.

Looking for information on an art print....?
Years ago, a friend purchased a print at DECK THE HALLS art shop-I am trying to find the name of the print. It featured columns in a museum on which hung many miniature framed prints of the master artists. Each column had several small framed pictures down it, and there were many columns-there was a lot of red and gold in the print. Does anyone have any idea what this print was called or where it could be ordered online? I had thought it was called "The Masters", but have been unable to find anything on it. Thanks for any help.
Beebs,
I'm not the person to recall your print as I haven't looked at many lately. I have a very visual memory though.
I wanted to clarify~
Was that art shop called Deck the "Walls" ?
