Blachernitissa icon and four Nativities, Russian painted icon of the 19th c., 12.1x10.4 inches. Icon of Our Lady of Blachernae and four Nativities from Moscow, painted in the 19th century with egg tempera on wood.
The Theotokos of Blachernae owes its name to the church built in honour of the Virgin Mary in the Blachernae section of Constantinople.
The Mother of God is depicted in prayerful attitude with an half-length representation of premortal Christ suspended in a medallion on her chest.
The four Nativities are: the Nativity of the Theotokos, the Nativity of Jesus, the Nativity of John the Baptist and the Nativity of Saint Nicholas. The name of the four figures are written in Greek near the representations and the red background is a classic characteristic of paintings of the Near East, where this icon may come from.
Icon delivered in an elegant blue velvet box with expertise.
