Christ in the modernist style lectern, silver 84 silver assay. 4-I gang, in their native icon case of cypress in the same style. In perfect condition!

How much is an icon?

30. then we'll see

I think that over 10 tons cu will have to sweat ...

At 10 will you buy yourself !!!:shy:

Why do you say that your icon refers to the style of "modern" (aka "art nouveau", as he "Jugendstil")? He almost never occurs in religious art Orthodox church. With a big stretch to it you can, perhaps, consider a church Alexis in Thais near Petersburg, but there is an icon - in the canonical style. And in the West Nouveau style in religious art, though not so rare, but still have to search. An example of Art Nouveau (northern) - Church Engelbrekt in Stockholm (Engelbrektskyrkan). A salary for your icon is made, rather, in psevdodrevneslavyanskom style, popular in Russia at the turn of the XIX - XX centuries.

How is that?
Of course, expect from the icon-painter, the creator inspired by Art Nouveau, Iver, for example, a la Mucha funny, but the murals and icons Nesterov, Vasnetsov, Vrubel ample, to talk about art nouveau in the religious art of the Orthodox Church. "
Yes, you walk around on the internet, many examples, the mass. And if the letter itself could be called academic, the salaries are too well that easy to find modern modernism. :D

Amateur, forgive, but Vasnetsov in Kiev is not modern?

Amateur, forgive, but Vasnetsov in Kiev is not modern?

Vasnetsov's paintings, as well as work Vrubel at St. Cyril's Church, but rather can be attributed to the style of "national of Russian Romanticism," than to "art nouveau", ie to modernity. Even the time-they are written before the advent of this style, because they were created in 1884 (Vrubel) and from 1885 to 1896 (Vasnetsov). As you mentioned Alphonse Mucha and his no less gifted followers in France, Germany, Russia and other countries worked in the period from 1895 to about 1914, after which the modern "out of fashion." Or do you think that here, "Russia - the native land of elephants?" And we saw in your salary ... But under hypnosis, perhaps we could see the modern. But in the very first to me, for some reason, more seen pseudo style, among other things, popular at that time, when and modern. And themselves salaries are good, no matter to which style they belong.

Well, on the painting, I rather agree with Amateur 'th, but when it comes to salaries, so for me, Kirill rights, the first and third - without any doubt Nouveau. Very beautiful.

And this, is not modern?

Beautiful, hard to argue. But probably something I do not understand .:( "If that is modern, then what is it?

There is a modern European, Scandinavian, Russian (in my opinion, this rethinking-adaptation "Russian style" in the early 20 century).

Yes, of course ...
Can not, in my view to approach the Russian icon so "in the forehead," comparing it with the photo frame.
Earlier, all the same, with the end of the 60's even.
But to argue that something? See for yourself the date of the first things that later, of course, to ascribe to the pulleys to modernity.
Could the faces on the icon to be really quite art nouveau, the faces of the same ... :)

This is a harsh modern .;)
