Icon of Virgin of Kazan gold leaf painted Russian style, 30x25 cm. This precious orthodox icon depicts the Virgin and Baby Jesus side by side in the Byzantine iconographic tradition, entirely hand-painted with extraordinary craftsmanship. Mary wears a red robe, a symbol of love and sacrifice, while Jesus is wrapped in a white robe with delicate pink and orange hues, standing out intensely against the golden background. The background is made with hand-applied gold leaf, giving the image depth and luminous reflections. Jesus, with his right hand raised, blesses the people: the fingers are positioned according to the traditional blessing gesture, with the ring and little finger united, symbolizing the Trinity and the dual nature of Christ, human and divine. The religious icon is protected by a transparent varnish, preserving over time the brilliance of the colors and the precision of the details. Dimensions: 30x25 cm with a thickness of 3 cm. Support: Linden wood, meticulously smoothed and prepared by hand. An artwork of intense spirituality and refined beauty, ideal for those seeking an authentic and symbolic representation of the profound union between Mary and her Son, crafted with true artisanal mastery.
