AN ICON SHOWING THE MURDER OF ST. GLEB Russian, 17th century Tempera on wood panel with double kovcheg. The halo and background made of gold. Set into a later panel (vrezka), losses. 33 x 26.3 cm. According to the legend of Nestor, the murderers pursued St. Gleb for a long time while he was in a boat. As they drew closer, Saint Gleb realized their malicious intent and begged his companions not to take up arms or resist. He told them that if they surrendered, they would simply take him to his brother, but if they resisted, they would all be struck down. Following the saint's wish, his companions landed on the shore, gazing at the blessed Gleb with pity, who remained in the middle of the river with the other youths. Soon after, the murderers approached, and one of them, a cook named Torchin, who had been bribed by Sviatopolk, committed the heinous act. With a knife, he cut Saint Gleb's throat while the saint was in prayer and silence. His death is regarded as an act of martyrdom, as Gleb refused to use violence or defend himself, choosing instead to submit to his fate in order to fulfill God's will.

IKONE MIT DER ERMORDUNG DES HEILIGEN GLEB Russland, 17. Jh. Holztafel mit zwei Rückseiten-Sponki (verloren). Doppeltes Kowtscheg, Eitempera auf Kreidegrund, partielle Vergoldung. 33 x 26,3 cm. Nach der Legende von Nestor verfolgten die Mörder den heiligen Gleb lange Zeit in einem Boot. Als sie sich näherten, erkannte der heilige Gleb ihre böswilligen Absichten und flehte seine Gefährten an, nicht zu den Waffen zu greifen oder Widerstand zu leisten. Er sagte ihnen, dass, wenn sie sich fügen würden, sie ihn einfach zu seinem Bruder bringen würden, doch wenn sie Widerstand leisteten, würden sie alle niedergeschlagen. Auf den Wunsch des Heiligen hin landeten seine Gefährten am Ufer, während sie voller Mitleid auf den gesegneten Gleb blickten, der mit den anderen Jugendlichen in der Mitte des Flusses verweilte. Bald darauf näherten sich die Mörder, und einer von ihnen, ein Koch namens Torchin, der von Swjatopolk bestochen worden war, beging die abscheuliche Tat. Mit einem Messer schnitt er dem heiligen Gleb die Kehle durch, während dieser im Gebet und in der Stille war. Sein Tod gilt als ein Akt des Martyriums, da Gleb sich weigerte, Gewalt anzuwenden oder sich zu verteidigen, und sich stattdessen seinem Schicksal hingab, um Gottes Willen zu erfüllen. In spätere Tafel eingesetzt (vrezka), Substanzverluste.
