The massive silver frame is decorated with high-relief gilding, shining enamels of the Gospel and decorative inserts with inscriptions in the Old Russian language, made in the technique of enamel. The chamber and solemn image of the Savior carries a spiritual message to people, recorded in the Gospel of Matthew: Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart (Matthew 11:28-29). Hallmarks: 84 assay value with the Moscow coat of arms St. George the Victorious slaying the serpent, the initials of the assay master I.A. and the date 1859 corresponding to the assay master I. Avdeev, as well as the name of an unknown master monogrammist with capital letters DT in a rectangular shield. Materials: wood, gesso, tempera. The frame is made of silver using the techniques of forging, chasing, graver engraving, finishing and gilding. Dimensions of the icon: height - 31.5 cm, width - 27 cm. The weight of the frame is about 430 grams. Width: 27cm, Height: 31.5cm, Depth: 3.5cm, Weight: 2kg, Condition: Signs of wear commensurate with age, Material: Enamel, ID: ID-ANTQ-11532
