A commanding, serene icon panel in the Pantocrator tradition - Christ enthroned, blessing hand raised, the Gospel open. Its power is in restraint: clear geometry, symbolic colour, and a quiet authority that reads instantly across a room.

This composition centres on Christ seated frontally, haloed in warm gold and wrapped in layered robes of ochre, saffron, and burnt amber . The drapery is painted with rhythmic folds that feel architectural - more sculpted than illustrated - creating depth through tonal shifts rather than excessive detail.

Behind him, a stylised throne in pale celadon greens gives the panel its cool counterpoint, framing the figure with soft verticals and a sense of ordered space. The open book introduces a focal flash of ivory and ink, adding narrative detail while reinforcing the icon’s formal balance.

The palette is deliberately limited - gold, earth pigments, and mineral greens - producing a surface that feels aged, luminous, and devotional. As part of De Ferranti’s Frescoes and Iconography collection, this panel can be commissioned as a faithful recreation or adapted in scale, level of patina , and substrate format, from framed wall panels to integrated architectural inserts.
