Russian Icon of the Mid 17th - Early 20th Century. Collection of Oleg Kushnirskiy
Before you is a unique collection of works of Russian religious art, previously inaccessible to the attention of the general public. Having devoted many years to his work, Oleg Kushnirskiy preserved and rescued the most beautiful Russian icons from oblivion,... finding them in remote villages and settlements, as well as at antique markets around the world. The brightest specimens of his collection, part of the richest heritage of Russian icon painting from the 17th to the 20th centuries and still known only to a narrow circle of connoisseurs, are presented for the first time in this book in all their diversity — with detailed comments intended to reveal the history and profound meaning of each of the icons.
