Orthodox icon of the Mother of God - 19th century, Russia, rare depiction

We invite you to discover an exceptional and rare work of sacred art – an Orthodox icon of the Mother of God dating from the 19th century from the territories of Russia. This extraordinary collector's item is distinguished by a unique depiction of the Mother of God, which deviates from the most common iconographic types, such as Hodegetria or Eleusa, giving it special artistic and historical value.

The icon, created in the traditional egg tempera technique on a panel, bears traces of time that add to its authenticity and spiritual dimension. 19th-century Russian icons were often characterized by a synthesis of traditional canons with local, folk influences, which can be seen in the details of the garments, the color palette, and the facial expression. The presented example is an excellent example of the icon-painting craftsmanship of this period, combining piety with high skill of execution.

For a collector of sacred art, an enthusiast of Orthodoxy or Russian history, this icon represents a unique opportunity. It is not only a devotional object but also an important testimony to the culture and spirituality of a bygone era. Its rarity lies in its specific composition or attributes, which may indicate a local cult or an infrequently encountered iconographic variant.

The icon will perfectly fit into a collection of religious art, enrich the space of a home altar, or become the centerpiece of an antique lover's study. We guarantee the authenticity and age of the object. This is an investment in a unique piece of heritage, whose value only increases over time.
