Icon - Anastasis - Limewood

Greek Orthodox Icon
With the depiction of the Resurrection of Christ (Anastasis)
Dynamic: rather than a static image of a single saint, this scene offers a dynamic narrative full of action.
The fact that this icon, with a beloved subject, combines with a rare traceable signature of a local master (A.M. KOUTOUZIS FROM SYROS) makes it a highly attractive and collectible object.
It may even be a descendant of the famous Nikolais KOUTOUZIS (1741-1813).
It comes from my Greek collection from Izmir, my birthplace, and previously came from Syros.
Belgium private collection years 1920s/1930s/1968
