The composition is painted in tempera with gold leaf on a recessed wooden panel.The icon emphasizes eschatological themes—Christ as Pantocrator, Judge, and Redeemer—encircled by the apocalyptic tetramorph. The mandorla is painted in deep blue and golden hues, enhancing the divine presence.

At the top, the inscription reads: “GOD ALMIGHTY”.DimensionsDimensions: Icon: 23 × 20 × 2 cmConditionGood overall condition with minor paint losses along the edges and typical age-related surface wear.
