Original antique icon of the Mother of God "Tolga"
This icon of Mother of God "Tolga" was painted around the middle of the 19th century. The preservation of this icon is fantastic, with very little restoration. The Tolga icon of the Theotokos was quite famous throughtout Russia, but this particular depiction with the text is very rare. The text reads as part of the akathast hymn to the Tolga Mother of God. The panel itself is complete with both splines. The overall icon is quite large and would serve as a very beautiful center peice for any icon corner or would also be honored as a treasure at any parish.
