Date: 19th centuryTotal weight: 2190 gDimensionsChrist: 21.5 x 15.8 cmAngels: each 21.2 x 14.5 cmThe Christ Pantocrator is surrounded by the archangels Gabriel and Michael. It is a unique scene that is very rarely offered as a whole. The icons of the angels are openwork and are decorated with flower buds in the edges. The discs that the angels hold in their hands bear the name of Christ. Such a large, intact and complete Angels deesis is hardly ever offered.References: The book ‘Metalen Ikonen, Blauwdruk van een verzameling door Jos Opdebeeck’ has a cover with an image of the Pantocrator and on page 15 there is a good description. In the catalogue of Karel Rimanque ‘Metalen ikonen uit Rusland van de 16de tot de 19de eeuw’, there is a description on page 49. The leading Stefan Jeckel also describes the angels in his book ‘Russische Metall-Ikonen – In Formsand gegeossener Glaube’ on pages 100 to 104.Will be carefully packaged and sent by registered mail.
