Our Lady of Kazan

A noble interpretation of one of the most beloved icons of the Orthodox world: the Mother of God of Kazan, a symbol of divine protection and sacred royalty. This work represents a synthesis of traditional Russian devotion and high-class artistic craftsmanship — a piece worthy of a ceremonial interior or a private collection with museum-level standards.

The Virgin is shown frontally, her gaze serious and protective, standing as a silent mediator between heaven and earth. Beside her, the Christ Child raises His hand in blessing, looking directly toward the viewer — a theologically powerful detail that seems to transcend the surface of the icon.

The background is crafted from silver-plated copper, richly engraved with symmetrical vegetal motifs, while the halos are embellished with gold leaf and mounted Bohemia crystals — red, blue, and turquoise — adding a subtle yet sumptuous chromatic resonance. The faces are painted in oil with meticulous fidelity to the iconographic canon, yet with enough nuance to reveal the artist’s own sensitivity.

The frame, made of solid toned oak with decorative metal corner inserts, enhances the visual stature of the piece. The icon is protected under glass, ensuring durability and lending the ensemble a discreet, monumental presence.

An ideal work for liturgical environments, sacred art collections, or interiors with an aristocratic spirit. Its impact is not merely aesthetic — it is profoundly spiritual.
