The appearance of lacquer painting on metal, the birthplace of which is Nizhny Tagil, refers to the conditional date of 1746. This type of traditional arts and crafts originated in the Urals. Mining painting acquired stable features of the established craft. Houses and their interior decoration, wooden dishes and other kitchen utensils, chests and tin things were decorated with elegant paintings. Since the mid-18th century, lacquer saucers and trays have been in demand. Later, there is a division into complex multilayered and simple swoop painting. The article analyses the qualifying works performed by students studied under higher education programmes in the technique of Nizhny Tagil multilayered painting. The focus is on the system of traditional and innovative artistic and technical techniques for the decorative design of works, mainly furniture items. The research uses methods of descriptive and formal stylistic analysis of works of art. The characteristic artistic-stylistic, compositional and technological features of the Nizhny Tagil painting are considered. An attempt is made to identify the common features inherent in the Nizhny Tagil multilayered painting, as well as the distinctive features of the works of artists. To achieve this purpose, monographic publications and scientific articles of Russian researchers in folk art were used.
