Mandylion, il Volto di Cristo
Sold
Igorski paints icons following the oldest models and techniques: the face is not the artist's invention but the transmission of a thousand-year-old canon. This Mandylion, now sold, is the earliest among those the artist has made: it dates to 2023, the year he returned to iconography after a break.
The face of Christ, imprinted not by human hand, one of the most recognized images in Orthodox iconography, appears here in its simplest form: a small icon made for the home rather than the church.
Made in vinyl tempera on plywood, with imitation gold gilding.
A commissioned icon: from € 100
