Description
Mother of God of Passion, Russia, 18th century, tempera on wooden board, size 31 x 27 cm. The Passionate icon of the Mother of God is another highly honored icon in Orthodox tradition, belonging to the iconographic type Hodegetria. Christ and His Mother foreshow the forthcoming sufferings – the Passions of Christ. Looking over His left shoulder, with a strained and focused look, He looks into His future and tightly holds the big and warm hand of Mother with His small hands. The Passionate icon of Mother of God is probably one of the most amazing icons of Mother of God. It is, at the same time, dramatic and lyrical: there is an apparent self-control and courage, and at the same time, an immense depth of emotional feelings and pain of a loving mother for her son; this makes this icon a very humane one, close and understandable to everyone. Provenance: private collection Netherlands. The authenticity of every icon is guaranteed. Every icon is sold with extensive written expertise.Shippingcost: 35 euro to United States, Europe and Russia. Shipping within 5 days after the payment.
