1/5
Description
19th century Russian icon.
"Mother of God Fyodorovskaya".
Painting on wood, with gilt silver case, enamels and semi-precious stones.
Russian contrasts on one side: 84 (silver grade), AE (unknown silversmith from Moscow), St. George on horseback (Moscow city mark), A.B. 1893 (assayer Aleksandr Kazimirovich Vyrzhikovsky of Kiev 1893-1898).
Slight wear marks due to the passage of time.
Measurements: 36 x 29 cm.
The icon is a version of the Eléousa type (Virgin of the "Tenderness"), which carries the Infant Jesus nestled against the mother's cheek. The Mother leans her face towards the child, who raises an anxious face to her. However, she is not looking at the child, but at the one looking at the icon.
Mother of God Fyodorovskaya (also known as Our Lady of St. Theodore and the Black Virgin Mary of Russia) is the patron icon of the Romanov family. It is one of the most revered icons of the Upper Volga region.
Heotókos is the name of an iconographic type of the Virgin in Byzantine art, in which she appears seated on a throne with the Child Jesus on her lap, both facing forward in a hieratic attitude. This iconographic model is based on another characteristic of Romanesque art: the Maiestas Mariae (Mary's majesty or supreme highness - in the heavens), which from the Italian Gothic onwards became known as Maestà.
