Stroganoffin koulukunta

Stroganoffin koulukunta is a Russian Icon artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Finnish National Gallery.

This was a school of Russian religious painters who made small, vivid icons on wood. They painted figures with flat gold halos and bold colors—look for **Arkkienkeli Mikael, venäläinen ikoni**, a warrior angel in red and blue. Their work belongs to the long tradition of *ikoni*, images meant for prayer. If you want to see more, tap into the quiet strength of the angel’s stance.
