19TH CENTURY RUSSIAN ORTHODOX BRONZE CROSS CRUCIFIX
An antique Russian Orthodox cast bronze cross with detailed relief work. At the top of the cross is God the Father as the King of Glory with kneeling figures of angels. Below is an image of another hypostasis of the one God - the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove. Next is God the Son crucified on the cross - Jesus Christ. Thus, there is a peculiar scheme of the Trinity. The presented cross belongs to the so-called priestly type. On both sides of the sleeves of the Calvary Cross there is an inscription with the titles: IC XC. Above the head of the crucified Christ is an inscription of four capital letters: INCI, which stands for: Jesus the Nazarene King of the Jews. Inscribed in Church Slavonic, in the center and features the text of the Orthodox prayer on the backside. Circa 1850-1890. Antique Russian Orthodox Crosses And Religious Art Collectibles.
