Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $200**

Eastern Europe, Russia, ca. 19th century CE. A beautiful five panel brass icon with brightly colored blue, white, and yellow enamel in the background of each scene depicted. Small, closely incised letters, now almost impossible to read, fill in the lines above each panel and presumably give titles to each scene. The icon has an onion-dome style shape, echoing Russian architecture. The scenes depicted show saints observing portraits of the Virgin and Child. Size: 4" W x 6.55" H (10.2 cm x 16.6 cm)
