18th Century Russian Icon of Entrance into Jerusalem
On gently curved wood panel. There are several iconographic types of Eastern Orthodox icons depicting the Entry into Jerusalem; however, they all are almost similar in composition. Jesus Christ is depicted in the center of the icon, sitting upon a donkey and heading toward Jerusalem. His invisible glory is represented by a halo, and the scroll in His hands means Holy Wisdom. The city of Jerusalem is usually depicted to the right of Christ, sometimes with the domed Temple topped by a Cross. The Mount of Olives is to the left. The Twelve Apostles headed by St. Peter and St. John follow the Messiah. 13 x 17.25 inches
