Original artwork description:

Author's performance of the icon of the Blessed Virgin Mary with the Infant Jesus in her arms. The work is made of oil, acrylic gold and gold leaf on the basis of MDF, fixed on a wooden frame with a glued canvas on the base with special impregnations and sizing. The front colorful surface is covered with a protective layer of varnish from any weathering. In my practice as an artist, there are many icons that I have made, but for the first time I am exhibiting an icon in my gallery. This Icon is a spiritual part of my creative life. The total weight of the icon is almost 10 kg, as it is based on a material and a frame that create strength.

Materials used:

oil on canvas on cardboard
