Icon on wood in a carved wood frame, the middle-sized of the three icons purchased by General and Mrs. McNarney from Farid Salman & Co, of Herod's Gate in Jerusalem in 1960. This one has lettering in Greekand has a raised wooden frame holding the icon itself. On the reverse is a holder containing an original copy of the letter from the Farid Salman Company. The painting is nicely executed. Mary is depicted in a red robe, making it quite different from Western images of the Virgin, who is almost always shown in a blue robe. Size: 11 1/2 by 7 1/2 by 3/8 inches. Provenance: Estate of General Joseph McNarney. Processing and shipping in the Continental United States is $30.00 plus 1.5% cost replacement insurance.
