Description: | Contemporary wooden icon, made from a rectangular piece of wood with a rounded oblong peg at the top and incised geometric decoration either side with a hinged, cut-out door. Inside each, both sides are decorated with polychrome paintings. One side depicts two female saints greeting each other, possibly Mary and Elizabeth, and an angel holding a ceremonial sceptre. The other side shows Mary and child guarded by two angels with two figures below, and Saint George and the Dragon. | Publisher: | http://www.horniman.ac.uk/ | Subjects: | wood string paint icons | Source: | Horniman Museum | Identifier: | oai:oai.horniman.ac.uk:object-111208 |
