Description of the Artwork “Icon of St. Anthony and Theodosius”
Unique handmade wooden icon depicting the Saints Anthony and Theodosius of Pechersk. Made in the technique of deep wood carving with a high level of detail. Masterfully crafted faces, folds of clothing and a decorative frame create volume and expressiveness. This icon was made by the Ukrainian artist Dobrovolsky Serhiy Oleksandrovych. The product was created in the technique of hand-carving on wood, with high detail of faces, clothing and decorative elements. The material chosen for the icon is natural wood, which emphasizes warm natural shades and gives the work a special spiritual sound. The icon depicts the Saints Anthony and Theodosius of Pechersk - founders of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, symbols of faith, humility and spiritual guidance. Masterfully crafted details, arched composition, and traditional ornamental decoration make the icon not only a sacred shrine, but also a true work of art.
