The icon (plot-century?)
 

Hello, knowing respected community!


Please suggest what (what the story) and who is depicted on the icon, and may be someone will know the school letters, author, date of writing.


Thank you

Ukraine, 19.
"The Holy bessrebrennik Kozma, Pr. Xenia, and Sv.Arh.Stefan Pr.Anna."
All the icons, with rare exception, not the signature, so the name of the icon painter is unknown.

Pecheneg,


Thank you very much for your help.

Pecheneg, Always say less than seems necessary .

Could you also provide guidance on the indicative price level of this icon ? Thank you in advance .

To assess the need to specify the size of icons, pictures reverse side , and all sorts of small details that you may not seem significant , but the experts will help you more accurately to attribute , and evaluate your thing.

Pecheneg,


Thanks, will try puzzled and do in the near future.

Small parts can not puzzling.
Pretty simple postbarochnaya Ukrainian icon.

Pecheneg have attributed the fact.
No secrets there.
 
For a rough estimate need only specify the size.

redbor,


Thank you very much for your advice.
However, if an expert-Pecheneg still points to the need for additional information., We must provide it.

I think there is a secret . This pairing of left and right. The meaning of left-right pairing in ancient times was set in the image of the Gnostic beings ABRAXAS. In his essay "Thanks ," posted in my blog titled "An Essay for Zara ," opening character emphasis was placed on " management ." The icon shows the controls. I'll write about that sometime .

 Yes, you 're right , if it does not bother , when the topic will indicate the size , it can be estimated with the Commercial side and closed on this topic.
 But I'm not quite : write, understand syuzhet.Chto Arch . Stephen sends Bs . Kozma with St. Anne points to something , and Xenia in the background with blagoveniem looks at why Kozma Dari passed without his brother Damien , or maybe it is another Kozma .

Normal family icon (eg mother , father, son and daughter ) with tezoimenitymi saints. Damian in the family was not.
 <! - ~ 1 ~ -> strict canons of icon painting painters do not kept , but all the saints is quite recognizable
Archdeacon Stefan to hand holds his censer , and nothing passes Cosmas .
 But, see detailed photos - always good to be <! - ~ 1 ~ ->
