An antique Russian hand-painted icon depicting St. Nicholas, encased within a finely carved wooden shadow box frame. This devotional artwork, dating to approximately 1920, features a central panel with the saint's image, adorned with a detailed brass oklad (overlay) that highlights his crown, halo, vestments, and the Gospel book he holds. The brass oklad exhibits a rich, aged patina, complementing the subtle coloring of the painted image beneath.
The icon is presented in a deep, carved wooden shadow box frame, showcasing intricate relief work along its borders. The reverse of the frame bears a stylized, partially legible signature or mark, appearing as "W.F." This piece embodies the traditional craftsmanship of Russian Orthodox iconography, offering a compelling blend of spiritual artistry and decorative appeal.
