Description from the seller
This icon is a religious piece highly representative of the second half of the 20th century, crafted with a repousse silver plate that frames the hand-painted faces of the Virgin and Child. The combination of worked metal and artisanal painting gives it a solemn presence and a balance very characteristic of contemporary icons inspired by Byzantine tradition.
The silver frame displays meticulous work in its decorative reliefs, with floral and geometric motifs that add depth and luminosity. In contrast, the painted faces stand out for their softness, restrained expressiveness, and the delicacy of the tones, which reinforce the devotional character of the piece.
This is an icon intended both for contemplation and for decoration, ideal for collectors of sacred art from the 20th century or for those seeking a religious work with a balance between tradition and modern craftsmanship. Its condition and craftsmanship make it an object with charm and artistic value.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
