Icon of the Lord Almighty with a silver frame. P.A. Ovchinnikov firm. Moscow, 1866
A rare icon of the Lord Almighty, made in 1866 in Moscow, is a striking example of the academic style typical of Moscow workshops of the mid-19th century. The icon depicts a half-length image of the Lord with an open book in his left hand and a blessing gesture with his right hand. The work was done by a professional craftsman with careful attention to detail. The silver gilded frame, created in the early period of the famous Moscow workshop of Pavel Ovchinnikov, is a standard of 19th-century jewelry art. A distinctive feature of the frame is a complex pattern made using the techniques of engraving with a graver, chasing, canting and gilding.
