[QUOTE="nastina.nastea, post: 10247230, member: 81895"]Based on the date, obviously a Russian Empire and any slavonic part of it. On the back it is written "В (К) Подхаповъ" - V (or K as not clear) Podhapov, most probably the name of the master. The icon is called "Господь Вседержатель", which is The Lord Almighty if translate literally, but I don't know what is correct English version for this. On the bible that Jesus holds is written in church slavonic "Придите ко мне вси труждающиеся и обремененные" - [SIZE=4]Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavy laden (literal translation). It's a line from [/SIZE]Matthew's Holy Gospel 11:28-30.[/QUOTE]
