Summary

Description
English: Icon "George's Miracle about the snake." From the collection of I. Ostroukhova. XV century. Novgorod school. 82x63. Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow. One of the most beautiful images of George in Russian icon painting. In the swiftness of the horse - echoes of Novgorod paintings of the XIV century. The icon notes not only for the deviation from the original countess, but also the very translation, dating back to the early Byzantine plasticity of Barberini. Literature: Alpatov M. The image of George the warrior of Byzantium and Ancient Russia. - "Etudes on the history of Russian art", v. 1, p. 154-169
Русский: Икона «Чудо Георгия о змие». Из собрания И. Остроухова. XV век. Новгородская школа. 82х63. Третьяковская галерея, Москва. Один из самых прекрасных образов Георгия в русской иконописи. В стремительности коня — отголоски новгородских росписей XIV века. В иконе примечательно не только отступление от первоначальной графьи, но и самый перевод, восходящий к ранневизантийской пластике Барберини. Литература: Алпатов М. Образ Георгия-воина Византии и Древней Руси. — «Этюды по истории русского искусства», т.1, стр. 154—169
