Icon - Tolgskaya Mother Of God - Wood
Antique Russian Icon of the Tolgskaya Mother Of God with other Saints from the mid 19th Century.
Original condition, I assume this way it is the original gilding.
The icon looks very high quality, needs restoration, if someone prefers it that way.
"The Theotokos of Tolga (Russian: Толгская икона Божией Матери) is a Russian Orthodox icon representing the Virgin Mary (Theotokos) with the infant Jesus Christ. The Theotokos of Tolga, named after the Tolga river in Yaroslavl, is known in three copies created between the end of the 13th[1] and the beginning of the 14th century. They were drawn in Eleusa type. One of them, traditionally called a "Manifested" icon, was manifested to Prokhor, the Bishop of Rostov in 1314. "
Measures 44. 5 x 36. 5 x 3 cm
Painted on wood.
Condition: As seen on photos: several paint chipping offs, paint cracks are present, otherwise it looks very beautiful in my opinion! Please see all photos.
