About this item

Icons of the Savior Not Made by Hands come to Russia, according to some sources, already in the 9th century. The oldest surviving icon of this iconographic type is the Novgorod Savior Not Made by Hands (second half of the 12th century). The following iconographic types of the Image Not Made by Hands can be distinguished: Spas on the edge" or simply " Ubrus", where the face of Christ is placed on the image of a board (ubrus) of a light shade and" Savior on the skull" or simply " Chrepie"(meaning" tile", "brick"), " Ceramide". According to legend, the image of Christ appeared on the tiles or bricks that hid the niche with the icon of the Savior Not Made by Hands. Occasionally, on this type of icons, the background is an image of brick or tiled masonry, but more often the background is given simply in a darker (compared to the ubrus) color.
