Russian hand painted icon of Saint Anne.

She is the wife of Joachim and is revered as a saint. Mary's parents are never mentioned in the canonical biblical texts; their story was first told in the apocryphal Proto-Gospel of James and the Gospel of Matthew, and then enriched with hagiographic detail over the centuries, all the way to the Golden Legend by Jacopo da Varazzin. Her image is present in the festive church calendar as a symbol of the continuation of the family and the holiness of people, of the truthful life in which Mary was raised to be chosen by God to give birth to the Savior. The image in the icon is of the Eleusinian type and imitates the closeness of the Virgin and Child, known from many icons of this iconographic type.

Saint Anne is the mother of the Virgin Mary. She was the youngest daughter of a priest from Bethlehem. Her husband was Saint Joachim.
The tradition tells that after the couple prayed fervently to God for a long time, an Angel of the Lord announced to them that a daughter would be born to them, through whom the blessing of the entire human race would come. After the birth of little Maria, her parents dedicated her to the temple when she was 3 years old. The icon of St. Anne, mother of the Virgin Mary, depicts a holy woman about whom little is known

The icon is hand painted on wood.
Item is in good condition for its age.

Grazie per il tuo feedback La tua opinione è molto importante per me!

Mooi icoon en goed verpakt; enkel jammer dat er aan de achterzijde niets was om m op te hangen. Maar dat was wel snel verholpen; hij hangt al! Een schitterende aanwinst, waar ik erg blij mee ben!

I'm glad you were satisfied and you like the icon Martien!

Beste bedankt voor die goede verpakking en mag ik vragen waarom de goudkleur op de laatste iconen zo mat is tegenover de vorige iconen die ik bij je aankocht ? Gr Pablo

Hallo! Bedankt voor de vriendelijke woorden en feedback. Ik probeer altijd elke zending zeer goed te verpakken. Wat betreft de kleur: elke keer blijkt het anders, wat normaal is als het om handgemaakt gaat. Elke keer is het resultaat anders. Met respect!

It makes me happy to receive such a beautiful icon - and again, what an impeccable service!
