Russian icon of the Pantocrator on a thick cypress board from the mid-19th century.
Impressive and heavy Icon of the Pantocrator on a thick cypress board without dowels, mid-19th century. Canonically represents the half-figure of Christ with a blessing gesture and an open Gospel. With titles in baroque cartouches on the sides of the halo and an ornamental belt separating the image from the margins. On which are presented: St. Michael the Scribe and St. Agnia the Martyr. The order of execution and the dimensions of the expensive board require special care and quality of painting. Even now it is a monument to the icon painting art of the mid-19th century, bearing the imprint of noble sublimity, decorative and stylistic harmony. The influence of the second baroque is summed up by the contrasts of the black lines of the cartouches and the black and gold belt around the dark chitin of the Pantocrator. All around, muted olive tones of flowers convey a general atmosphere of humanized warmth and meekness. The aura of mercy is emitted by the faded, craquelure background of the icon and the soft color of the fields, preserving the nostalgia of a long time ago and a thing made with love. Russia 1850-1860. Icon size: 40x34.2 x4.4 cm.
