Very beautiful small modern day icon from Palekh showing the Virgin Mary and Christ. Like most icons, it was painted anonymously, as icon painters believe that the image ultimately comes from the hand of God. This one shows the Murom-Ryazan Mother of God. You can see the original, and read a little about its history by clicking here. The icon is made out of high quality papier mache and has raised edges. An exquisite religious piece sure to be cherished for many generations.--BOX1363
