This extremely detailed 19th-century icon depicting various religious scenes is a miniature representation of the traditional icon screen, also known as the iconostasis, which is used to separate the nave from the sanctuary in Russian Orthodox churches. The icon features six registers separated into smaller images of the prophets, saints, and church feasts. The scenes of the Synaxis of the Archangels, the Pokrov of the Mother of God, the Trinity, the Beheading of St John the Forerunner, the Dormition, and the image of St. Nicholas are placed between the Deacon's Doors. The main Orthodox church feasts can be seen in the second register. As for the compositional center of this antique piece, it is reserved for the image of Christ Enthroned. The icon is currently part of a private collection located in Germany.

Iconostases in the Greek Catholic Churches of Slovakia

#catholicism #christianity #slovakia #iconostasis #iconography #eastern catholicism #notice how greek catholic churches in slovakia and hungary often use western style art for the icons instead the byzantine style typical #of orthodox churches>#also apparently the archbishop banned people from taking photos in greek catholic slovakian churches so these photos are from before

The hand-painted icon of the Iconostasis is a treasured piece of antique religious art, replicating the real iconostasis of the Moscow Kremlin’s Dormition Cathedral. Unlike early forms of this icon type, which consisted of only 3-4 tiers and were much lower, the given piece is comparably tall and includes six tiers. Each row features different historical events, prophecies, saints, Great Feasts, symbolic objects, and more. Russian Icon Collection is excited to own such an exceptional icon in our collection. Get to know more about it in our latest blog post.

Руины старой мавровской церкви Святого Николая – Свети Никола.

Ruins of old Mavrovo church Saint Nicholas – Sveti Nikola.

Горный круглогодичный курортный городок Маврово уникален тем, что здесь есть две церкви, посвященные одному и тому же святому. Первая церковь, известная как Стара Св. Никола, Старый Святой Николай, был построена в 1850 году и служила священным местом около 100 лет, пока в 1953 году не была построена плотина и не было создано искусственное озеро- Маврово, по названию одноименной затопленной деревни , жителей котрой переселили на другое место. Местные говорят, что святой и сила Божья не позволят церкви полностью исчезнуть в водах Мавровского озера. Поскольку храм продолжает появляться, утверждают, что невозможно скрыть и забыть священное место.

В течение многих десятилетей старая церковь была частично затоплена озером, но засуха последних лет позволила добраться до церкви пешком. Ценные иконы из этого храма были временно перенесены в небольшую церковь, спрятанную на склоне холма -другую Мавровскую церковь, также посвященную Святителю Николаю, но известную как Римская церковь. Сейчас в ней сохранились иконостас, кресты, богослужебные книги и иконы из затопленной церкви.Существовали проекты возрождения старого храма, но от них решили отказаться.

The year-round mountain resort town of Mavrovo is unique in that there are two churches dedicated to the same saint. The first church, known as Stara St. Nikola, Old St. Nicholas, was built in 1850 and served as a sacred place for about 100 years, until a dam was built in 1953 and an artificial lake was created - Mavrovo, after the name of the flooded village of the same name, the residents of which were relocated to another place. Locals say that the saint and the power of God will not allow the church to completely disappear in the waters of Lake Mavrovskoe. As the temple continues to appear, it is argued that it is impossible to hide and forget the sacred place.

For many decades the old church was partially submerged by the lake, but the drought of recent years has made it possible to reach the church on foot. The valuable icons from this temple were temporarily moved to a small church hidden on the hillside - another Moorish church, also dedicated to St. Nicholas, but known as the Roman Church. Now it has preserved the iconostasis, crosses, liturgical books and icons from the flooded church. There were projects to revive the old temple, but they decided to abandon them.
