Zhostovo painting, Folk art museum in Mytishchinsky District, Russia
The Zhostovo painting studio specializes in metal tray decoration with floral patterns, using intricate techniques of multi-layered oil painting on black backgrounds.
In 1825, the Vishnyakov brothers established their first workshop for painted trays in the village of Zhostovo, marking the beginning of this metal craft tradition.
Each Zhostovo tray represents a distinct artistic composition featuring garden and wildflowers arranged in harmonious bouquets against dark backgrounds with decorative borders.
The factory produces over 150 different tray shapes, from miniature pieces to large tablecloth-sized items, with each product receiving a unique identification number.
The painting process involves specific stages including underpainting, shading, color layering, and highlighting, requiring specialized skills passed through generations of local artisans.
