Description from the seller

Russian icon of the Twelve Great Liturgical Feasts - Russia, late 19th century

Beautiful Russian icon painted with tempera on levkas, depicting in a compartmentalized composition the main feasts of the Orthodox liturgical year. Notably, it includes:
The Nativity of the Virgin
Presentation at the Temple
The Annunciation
The Nativity of Christ
The Baptism in the Jordan
The Entry to Jerusalem
The Resurrection
The Dormition of the Mother of God
and other major episodes in the life of Christ and of the Virgin.

The decor is enhanced with golden backgrounds and an ornamental frame stamped with circular motifs. The painting, in the popular Russian style of the late 19th century, is characterized by a vivid palette (reds, greens, ochres) and simplified yet expressive strokes.

Condition: signs of wear, cracks, and minor losses of gilding visible, small gaps, but overall legible and decorative.
Icon mounted on a wooden panel with a cavity and original levkas.
