Icon - Christ Pantocrator - Wood, Metal

Ancient Russian icon 'Christ Pantocrator' with a metal oklad from the 19th century (circa 1880). Hand-painted with egg tempera on a wooden panel with a chalk ground. Typical method of icon making in 18th and 19th century Tsarist Russia. The motif is widespread and very popular in the Orthodox Church. This is an Old Believers icon. The painting is quite masterfully and detailed executed (see photos). Perfectly coordinated color contrasts and successful shading. The painting contains very authentic crackling (see photos). Minimal partial restorations are present (see photos). Particularly expressive and striking is the face of the Saint (see photos). The Saint is inscribed. The inscriptions are easily legible. On the back are two cross battens attached. Stable and solid wooden panel. The icon is in good condition with typical age-related signs of wear (see photos). An icon for collectors and connoisseurs of the subject. All details are clearly readable in the photos. Photos are part of the description. Dimensions: 31.5 x 26.5 x 2.8 cm
