Lot 1192 | A LARGE ICON SHOWING THE HEALER SAINTS
Tempera on wood panel. The panel devided into four horizontal registers. The center showing four images of the Mother of God (the Kazanskaya Mother of God, the Tikhvinskaya Mother of God, the Mother of God of Burning Busg and the Mother of God Feodorovskaya). All registers depicting selected saints including healers, martyrs, ascetics, prophets, kings and holy women. The 'healer' icons is the quintessence of the curative functions of the prayer image, of belief in its capacity for providing a defence against disasters and illnesses. All saints have corresponding explanatory testes about their healing function. Thus for a cure from 'illness of the eyes', people prayed not only to the Kazan Mother of God but also to the martyr Menas and Longinus the Centurion, for pain in the head to John the Baptist, for toothache to St. Antipas, and for fever to St. Martha. Romanos the Wonder-worker should help avoid barrenness, Barbara the Great Martyr and St. Onouphrios, to avoid sudden death.
