Elena Vladimir Baranoff holding her icon Holy Trinity
Over the years I have painted icon
paintings in the ancient medium of egg tempera and 24ct. gold and have created
a short film “Icon Paintings By Elena Vladimir Baranoff” featuring three icons painted by me which are housed in prominent collections in America.
Our Lady of Vladimir Icon
Our Lady of Vladimir is one of
the treasures of ancient painting of Byzantine iconography. The Holy Virgin is depicted in the moment when
the baby Jesus is leaning towards her cheek and embracing her by the neck with
the left hand. Full of motherly tenderness and sorrow foreseeing his future the
Holy Mother of God bends toward the Christ child. The icon awakens the most
deep and kind feelings.
Saint John The Baptist Icon
Saint John The Baptist is a traditional
icon of the ancient Russian style of icon painting depicting the figure of
Saint John centrally positioned and in full length, surrounded by miniature
scenes from the life of the Saint, forming a harmonious composition.
Holy Trinity Icon
Holy Trinity is one of the most revered
and beloved holy icons in the history of Orthodox Christianity in Russia. The
icon is the creation of 15th century Russian icon painter Andrei Rublev, and is the symbol of spiritual unity, love and peace.
