19th-century Russian Orthodox icon depicting Christ Pantocrator, finely rendered with traditional egg tempera on wood and encased within a deep, hand-crafted kiot-style shadow box frame. The image is accentuated by a delicately pierced and gilded metal halo (riza), surrounding Christ’s solemn visage. Inscribed Church Slavonic script is visible on the open Gospel, symbolizing divine wisdom. Visible wear, flaking, and oxidation throughout lend authentic patina, consistent with age and devotional use. Dimensions: 25.5 x 22 cm; depth 6.5 cm. A compelling piece of Eastern Christian spiritual heritage.
