Description
Summary:The article introduces two groups of royal icons to be found in Suceava county. They were painted by Russian artists from the Armory Palace of the Moscow Kremlin at the beginning of the 18th century. Four royal icons of the former iconostasis in St. Nicholas church in Rădăuţi – Pantokrator, Virgin and Child, St. John the Forerunner and St. Nicholas – were painted by Kirill Ulanov, Alexei Kvashnin and a certain Peter, in Moscow, in 1707. Three other royal icons of the iconostasis (second half of the 18th century) in St. Elias church near Suceava – Pantokrator, Virgin and Child and Saint Trinity – were created by Kirill Oulanov and his brother Vassili, in 1708, in Moscow as well.
