Russian old believers Icon Cross with Guardian Saints. Circa 1870s. Bronze. Enamel. Heavy casting. Size: 6 by 9". Very good condition.
At the center of the Cross there is a beautiful image of Christ crucified. The victory of Christ over death on the cross is revealed in the peace and humility of Christ in this image. Christ appears to be embracing the whole word with eternal love that transforms the cross into a symbol of life. On the left panel of this cross St.Mary Magdalene and the Mother of God mourn the crucifixion of Christ. On the right panel of this cross St.John the Evangelist and St.longinus the Centurion behold the Glory of Christ. "God the Father" on the top. In the halo of this icon we see three Greek letters which mean "He who is". On the first cross bar there are two angels ministering to the crucified Christ. Between the angels there are old Slavonic letters which say "Angels of the Lord". Below the angels, left and right there are two Slavonic words, which mean "King of Glory". IC XC means "Jesus Christ". The old Slavonic letters on the left and right of Christ's halo means "Jesus Christ Son of God". The old Slavonic letters that go from left to right under the main bar say: "We venerate Thy Cross O Master and we glorify thy holy resurrection". The letters K and T to the left and right of Christ stand for the spear and the sponge. Behind the footplate of the cross the walls of the Holy City Jerusalem are shown. This signifies that Christ was crucified outside the wall of Jerusalem so that his sacrifice would be accessible to the whole world. Below the feet of Christ we see the letters IT and MAPB. They stand for The Mount of Golgopha "and" The place of the skull has become Paradise. Under these letters we find the skull of Adam. Holy Tradition teaches that Christ was crucified in exactly the same place as Adam was buried. When the blood and water poured forth from the side of Christ Adam was sanctified and the whole world was given the hope of salvation from Adam until the end of the end of time. Authenticity guaranteed. Certificate of the Authenticity available upon request.
