Genuine Russian antique icons are hard to find. This one comes from a grand old collection with provenance.

Acquired long before the Eastern Bloc opened up.

This is a beautiful portrayal of the \"Mother of God, Joy to All Who Grieve.\"

Incredible detail and pathos in this piece.

Measures 8.75 x 7 inches. Wood is about 1 inch thick.

A statement piece for sure, the kind rarely on . Because finding the right buyer who understand these icons\' value is rare on , this item will be on for this period only, and after that it goes to a gallery or sale house - sorry!
