Description from the seller
Ancient Russian icon from the 19th century, depicting Saint Mitrofan (1623–1703), the first bishop of Voronezh, venerated by the Orthodox Church for his austere life and religious commitment.
The Saint is depicted in episcopal vestments, with his right hand blessing and the pastoral staff in the left.
Painted on a wooden board, it preserves authentic condition, with an antique patina, evident paint losses, missing material, and widespread wear, especially at the bottom. The painted surface remains stable nonetheless.
Measures 27.5x21x1.5 cm.
Adequate packaging and fast shipping.
