{"product_id":"antique-icon-jesus-and-virgin-mary-tempera-on-board-xviii-century","title":"Antique Icon Jesus and Virgin Mary Tempera on Board XVIII Century","description":"Tempera and gold on panel. Ionian School, 18th century. The Ionian (or Heptanesian) school, which flourished between the 18th and 19th centuries in the Ionian Islands and was influenced by contacts with Italian art academies, fused the spirituality of the Byzantine tradition with the realism, perspective, and tenderness of Western painting. The icon features the Deesis (meaning \"intercession, supplication\") at the center, the typical representation of Christ enthroned in blessing, with Mary and John on either side, praying for humanity and interceding for them. At the bottom are three figures of saints, likely Saint George, Saint Nicholas, and Saint Theodore. The panel shows several losses of paint and gilding.","brand":"Di Mano in Mano Co Uk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56421320786299,"sku":"ARARPI0325290","price":316.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/3880\/2555\/files\/ARARPI0325290_1.jpg?v=1789600122","url":"https:\/\/www.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/products\/antique-icon-jesus-and-virgin-mary-tempera-on-board-xviii-century","provider":"Di Mano in Mano Co Uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
