tempera on wood, 875 silver, enamel, 39 x 34 cm
The icon depicts the Mother of God in four iconographic types. The painting is covered by a superb silver and enamel fretwork. The hallmark (difficult to certify) of the imperial master Mihail Ovchinnikov was first used in 1888, after the death of his father, the famous silversmith Pavel Ovchinnikov. Mikhail was the eldest son of Pavel Ovchinnikov and took over his father's craft, also continuing to use Pavel Ovchinnikov's hallmarks with imperial privilege.
