Interesting icon

[uriart]

Pecheneg, all you saw correctly.
A craquelure understand why this.
After all the icons in the churches were restored, that is dissected with varnish or linseed oil.
From year to year and grew a layer of lacquer.
While the church was, and there was no Crazing. Yet there was a regime, no matter how how.
And as the church began to tear down the people in their homes and assorted icons.
In the 50 - or 60-ies of men hid in the attic so the icons in the sheds.
It was impossible to say that the believer.
Branded would be a shame to work.
And as the house kept, nobody knows.
That craquelure appeared.
