Description from the seller
Icon of Christ Pantocrator with saints – Russia, 19th century
Icon painted on a wooden panel depicting Christ Pantocrator in bust, blessing with the right hand and holding the open Gospel with the left. The gold cruciform nimbus bears the Greek letters “Ο Ω Ν” (He Who Is).
The Cyrillic inscription on either side clearly identifies the subject:
“Образ Господь Вседержитель” (Image of the Lord Almighty).
The opened book presents a Church Slavonic text, corresponding to a gospel quotation.
In the upper corners, two medallions depict crowned saints
Traditional tempera-on-gesso technique on a brown background with gold highlights.
Panel composed of several boards joined, with crossbars at the back (typical construction).
Presence of craquelure
