Thank you so much for the beautiful icons! I received them today and love them. They are exquisite. Thank you, too, for arranging a payment plan for me, and for putting a wire on the back of each so I can hang them. I can't wait to do so.

1799 Small Russian Icon - St. Venerable Theodosius of Totma in silver revetment cover

The icon is depicting St. Theodosius, the Miracleworker of Totma blessed by Christ in Heavens, with his monastery in the back of him. The finely executed silver cover is hallmarked with 84 zolotniks silver purity mark, workmaster's initials A•Я, and St. Petersburg town mark dated 1799.

St. Venerable Theodosius, the Miracleworker of Totma (†1568), was the founder and abbot of the Totma monastery in the Archangel region of Northern Russia North. The monk led the most strict ascetic life, constantly being in prayer and labor. After his death, it was revealed that under his clothes, the ascetic wore iron chains and a hard-hair shirt that tormented his body until it bled. And on his head under the schema hood, he wore an iron cap. Over 150 after-life miracles are attributed to his intercession.
