VERY OLD AUTHENTIC 19TH-CENTURY HAND-PAINTED WOODEN ICON OF ST JOHN THE BAPTIST
15 1/2 X 8 INCHES, 3/4 OF AN INCH THICK
READS AT THE TOP IN GREEK \"IONNES O PRODROMOS\" OR \"JOHN THE FORERUNNER\"
A VERY UNUSUAL COMPOSITION, WITH THE HEAD OF JOHN THE BAPTIST SEVERED AND ON A PLATTER BELOW, WITH THE WINGED SAINT ABOVE
A nineteenth-century hand-made image. The horizontal slats of wood at rear (SEE PIC) are often applied by master icon makers to keep the wooden panel itself from warping over time.
FAIRLY FADED AND SOMEWHAT WORN OFF IN PLACES, BUT STILL A POWERFUL IMAGE AS DESIGNED
