A magnificent copy of the Russian icon of the Vladimir Mother of God. We offer a magnificent hand-painted copy of the 12th century Russian icon of the Virgin of Vladimir. This icon was owned by a Swedish citizen because on its back there is an inscription in Swedish that reads: All Saints\' Day/Alla Helgons dag/. The icon was painted probably in the 70-80s of the 20th century with paints on a canvas glued on a wooden board. The icon measures 25x30x2cm/ 9.8x11.8x0.8 inches and weighs 963 grams. An asset for top collectors and enthusiasts - you get what you see in the pictures. A wonderful acquisition for collectors and antiquarians. The Virgin of Vladimir, also known as Vladimir Mother of God, Our Lady of Vladimir (Russian: Владимирская икона Божией Матери; Ukrainian: Володимирьска ікона Божої Матері), and the Theotokos of Vladimir (Greek: Θεοτόκος του Βλαντίμιρ), is a 12th-century Byzantine icon depicting the Virgin and Child and an early example of the Eleusa iconographic type. It is one of the most culturally significant and celebrated pieces of art in Russian history. Many consider it a national palladium with several miracles of historical importance to Russia being attributed to the icon. Following its near destruction in the thirteenth century, the work has been restored at least five times.If you like what you see, place your offer!
