Antique Orthodox icon depicting Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, shown half-length, blessing with his right hand and holding the open Gospel inscribed in Church Slavonic. Christ and the Mother of God appear in circular medallions beside him, symbolizing his divine calling and episcopal authority. The rich gilded background, engraved halo, and detailed vestments with traditional cross motifs reflect classic devotional workshop craftsmanship. Natural patina, softened varnish, and visible age wear enhance its authentic historical character. The solid wooden panel with original back supports remains intact. Condition: visible age-related wear, craquelure, surface abrasions, and minor paint losses consistent with time and devotional use. Original wooden panel with back slats. Sold as is, preserving its authenticity and historical integrity. Thank you for the collector. “𝔒𝔩𝔡 𝔴𝔬𝔬𝔡 𝔠𝔞𝔯𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰 𝔥𝔬𝔩𝔶 𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰”
