Although we have a lot of wood in Russia, but often icons of this size also consist of several glued boards (usually two or even three boards, this size from a single board I rarely come across). Icons measuring 31 by 27 centimeters usually consist of one board. This is for example an icon board of the 18th century, perhaps even the 17th century (The size of this icon is 53.5 by 40 centimeters). The bevel can be a little lighter for several reasons. Or the picture was in the frame, or the bevel could do a little later than writing the picture)). Well, there can be many different reasons)) In Russia before the 17th century with a radial cut of the boards was not. Saw only a cross-section. Such a cut, even continued to saw and in the 19 century. Although, I do not know about Europe how they cut boards))? I need to read articles on this topic. Thank you)). So what do you think about dating the picture? Although if this is a European picture, will this board look strange?[/QUOTE]
