Description

The icon, made of wood, depicts the Deposition of Christ.
In the scene, we observe a female figure, likely Mary, wearing a red veil, a symbol of suffering and sacrifice, and a blue cloak over her embroidered dress, a sign of her purity and spiritual importance. The work features embroidery and decorations with floral and geometric motifs.
The woman's face is filled with pain and compassion, her eyes slightly closed in a sign of sadness, as she tenderly supports the body of Christ, expressing love and desolation.
Christ's body is depicted lifeless, emphasizing the supreme sacrifice. His body is stretched out, carefully laid on the woman's lap. The stigmata and the wound in his side are visible, clear signs of the crucifixion.
The background is golden and represents divinity and eternity.
The frame is enriched with elaborate ornaments with red and gold details that recall Byzantine and Russian art.
At the top left and right are religious symbols in Cyrillic, which may represent angels or saints witnessing the sacred moment.

The craftsmanship and precision of the pieces, combined with their distinctive style, make these pieces inimitable. Because they are handcrafted, shades and sizes may vary slightly, making each piece unique.
