Antique silver box. Amulet. Religion. Reliquary. Russia / Greece. 19th Century

Description

Old forged modeling, typical of ancient art.  The style and technique lead to the traditions of the prototype from the Byzantine era.
The revival brings renewal, the new style is close to the folk traditions, without contradicting the canons of the genre.  At the end of the 19th century, a new artistic worldview was established ... Byzantine art was rediscovered.  Skillful and hard-working hands from morning to night forged, drew and shaped exquisite silver jewelry, amulets and more.  Diversity marking human development.  Art schools emerged, with masters, painters, engravers, carvers, who left a mark of higher creativity on the products.  The new masters well understood their task, to follow the original guidelines created by their predecessors.
It is not enough to describe the words, this work of art depicting a biblical scene / St.  Georgi / with whom the master has clearly expressed his ideological intention and therefore, I will be silent and I will not bother you.
Please look at the pictures again and again ... and enjoy!
