Description:

Russia, 18th century CE. One of the finest and rarest icons we have had the pleasure of handling. Eleven early brass icons of the type most commonly associated as traveling icons set into a wooden frame - the frame created at the same time as the brass icons. With the exception of the center icon of Madonna and Child, all are enameled examples depicting various Saints and events in the life and crucifixion of Christ. A remarkable and touching example of religious art! Size: 9" W x 12.5" H (22.9 cm x 31.8 cm)

Provenance: Ex-Private LA County collection
