Ancient Russian Icon "Praise the Lord on the Cross'' 50x40, 20th century.Original mid-20th century Russian icon hand painted with egg tempera on a wood tablet treated with levkas.The orthodox icon is a representation of Psalm 33 (32) '' Hymn to the providence of God '': ''Rejoice, just, in the Lord, praise is fitting for the upright. Praise the Lord with the lyre, sing to him with the ten-stringed harp. Sing to the Lord a new song, play the lyre with art and acclaim. For the word of the Lord is right and all his works are faithful. He loves law and justice, the earth is full of his grace. By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, by the breath of his mouth all their host. As in a wineskin, it collects the waters of the sea, closes the abysses in reserves. Let the whole earth fear the Lord, let the inhabitants of the world tremble before him, because he speaks and everything is done, commands and everything exists. The Lord cancels the designs of the nations, makes the plans of the peoples useless. But the Lord's plan stands forever, the thoughts of his heart for all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he has chosen as heir. The Lord looks down from heaven, he sees all men. From the place of his abode he watches all the inhabitants of the earth, he who, alone, has molded their hearts and understands all their works. The King is not saved by a strong army nor the brave by his great vigor. The horse does not benefit for the victory, with all its strength it will not be able to save. Behold, the eye of the Lord watches over those who fear him, those who hope in his grace, to free him from death and nourish him in times of hunger. Our soul awaits the Lord, he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice and we trust in his holy name. Lord, may your grace be upon us, for in you we hope.
