In this expressive national icon it is interesting to note the preservation of the iconographic tradition, which goes back to the work of the outstanding master of the 17th century. Tikhon Filatyev.
On the icons of Tikhon Filatyev, the great ascetic and prophet was portrayed amidst an epic landscape, in whose green tones the main scenes of life were tactfully intertwined. The master of the 19th century, having preserved the composition he liked in general, followed the path of graphic simplification.
The memory of the prophet John the Baptist is celebrated several times a year: January 20, March 9, June 7, July 7, September 11, October 6, October 25 n. Art.
