A FINE ICON SHOWING ST. JOHN THE FORERUNNER Russian, Solvychegodsk, Stroganov School, late 16th century Tempera on wood panel with levkas, canvas and double kovcheg, gilding to the borders. 25.5 x 20.2 cm. The elegantly elongated figure of the Baptist, as well as the delicacy of the painting, fit seamlessly into the work of the Stoganov School. Furthermore, the elaborate design of the rugged landscape and architectural backdrop with the phantastic design of the fauna and flora is characteristic. In the upper left corner, the blessing Christ is enthroned in a cloud, entouraged by angels. Minor losses.
