Description from the seller

Russian four-register icon – egg tempera and polychrome highlights on wood, Russia, 19th century.

Beautiful Orthodox icon composed of four panels depicting Christ Pantocrator surrounded by several saints and sacred figures. The decoration features a rich ornamental gold background engraved and painted, with geometric frames and polychrome floral motifs typical of certain popular Russian productions of the 19th century.

The blessing Christ holds a scroll inscribed in Cyrillic. The halos are finely radiating and the backgrounds delicately punched, giving a striking decorative presence to the whole.

Authentic work of domestic devotion, executed in egg tempera on a wooden panel.

Condition: wear, cracks, small losses and visible old restorations, in keeping with age and use. Beautiful overall patina.

The photos are an integral part of the item description and complement the presentation. They allow you to assess its condition and features. Please examine them carefully before any bidding.

The item will be carefully packed and shipped with a tracking number, to ensure fast and secure delivery.

Happy bidding
