A still life of a Ushanka, a Russian winter hat, fur trimmed with ear flaps. Personett's textured fur and wood table invites the viewers to feel as if they are in the painting.

Signed "Personett" lower right corner. Framed in a traditional black frame w gold trim. Framed dimensions: 17 x 15 inches Frame has some notable scuffs - but the painting is in excellent condition.
