The drawing made with the pen, the dominant red-blue chromaticism, the way the physiognomies of the characters with short and small necks are made, the faces of the rounded characters are arguments in favour of the attribution. The iconographic theme depicted on dark blue is highlighted very well. The icons painter, in this period, paints in pure tones, not worth the tone by gradations. The icon is dated, in the middle in black "1887". (M.B.)
