Icon - Mother of God of Kazan - Wood

Mother of God of Kazan (Kazanskaya), one of the most venerated Marian icons in the Russian Orthodox tradition. Mother of God of Kazan — Kazanskaya Bogomater. Iconographic type: Hodegetria (the Virgin who shows the way to Christ). The Virgin is represented in half-length, with her face slightly inclined toward the Child. Christ Emmanuel appears to her right, upright and frontal, with his right hand raised in a gesture of blessing. The composition is characteristic of Kazan, although in this piece it is highly transformed by the metallic covering. It features a very abundant decoration of vegetal and floral motifs; scrolls and volutes; halos very elaborately worked; repoussé and gilded decoration.
