Russia, egg tempera on chalk ground, painted on wooden panel.
Oklad in gilt brass.
Back in wood cover.
Placed in a wooden case without glass
Following the traditional canons of the Russian Sacred Art.
Impressive and large icon full of intricate gilt brass floral leafs that intertwine eachother with grace. Also, a very detailed oklad protects the finelly executed painting.
Iconography: The Mother of God is shown frontal, with her hands raised in the orans position covered by the maphorion and the chiton clothes. Christ is shown within a round aureole upon her breast. Christ is blessing with his right hand and holding the globe in his left hand.
This iconography is a derivation of Isaiah's prophecy: "The Lord himself will give you a sign, a Virgin will conceive a Son and his name will be Emmanuel"
It has somewhat “hard to explain” divine aura with a golden glow which makes it very special. A rare collector item.
Condition:
In good condition, glass of th cabinet is missing, some parts of the brass oklad show signs of oxidation, painting in great condition.
Professionally packed and shipped with upmost care. This increases the shipping cost slightly but it reassures that it arrives without damages.
