Description from the seller

Very beautiful Russian/Orthodox icon with four important Biblical scenes – polychrome on a golden background

Particularly decorative and spiritual icon with four carefully worked-out representations from the Christian tradition, executed in the characteristic Orthodox icon style. The composition shows four central scenes from the life of Christ and the Holy Virgin, each rich in symbolism and refined details.

The representations include:

- The Resurrection of Christ
- The Crucifixion
- The Nativity of Christ (Christmas)
- The Dormition of the Mother of God (Dormition)

The warm golden backgrounds provide a beautiful play of light and enhance the sacred appearance of the whole. The vivid colors, fine line work and traditional iconography make this work a striking collector's item and a atmospheric decorative piece.

The icon is housed in a beautiful, classical wooden frame that gives the work extra cachet and is ready to hang.

Dimensions:
- 40 cm height
- 32 cm width
- 4 cm thickness

Carefully packed and insured shipping
