Theotokos of Vladimir

A rare collectible Byzantine icon inspired by the renowned “Our Lady of Vladimir,” one of the most venerated depictions of the Virgin Mary in the Eastern Orthodox tradition.

This piece captivates through the intimacy of its composition and the refinement of its execution, achieving a harmonious synthesis between liturgical ornamentation and classical easel painting.

The Virgin is shown with her head gently inclined, in a gesture of profound tenderness, holding the Christ Child close to her cheek. The scene embodies the essence of maternal love, a defining symbol of Byzantine iconography.

The faces are hand-painted in oil using a warm palette and soft, contemplative expressions—faithfully respecting traditional canon while allowing for subtle artistic nuance.

A distinguished work, ideal for collectors of sacred art seeking both emotional depth and historical resonance.
