<p>[QUOTE="Aquitaine, post: 4463344, member: 602"]antique, so.....I have a friend on Cape Cod who's STILL digging in her attic since her Mom passed a few years ago, and STILL coming up with items.....she sent me pics yesterday wondering what it is.....that her Grandfather brought back from Poland when he emigrated MANY years ago......I do believe it's a pretty old Russian Icon.....does any-one here speak/read Polish or Russian? There's writing/printing on the bottom and wondering if anyone could translate it? I DO know we have the VERY extensive Russian Icon Museum a couple of towns out and that's probably my next stop....she's NOT looking to sell as it's a family treasure even if no value......I found it interesting that the first image she sent was pretty dark....and hard to see the faces.....then she used flash, which lightened things up enough to see the faces!!! Pretty cool IMHO!!! ANY/ALL comments greatly APPRECIATED!!!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]385342[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]385343[/ATTACH]</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]385344[/ATTACH] </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
