metadata.value: The article is devoted to the technological examination of eight icons from the largest collection
  of Ural icon painting in Russia. For the first time the subject of study is the material component of Nev’yansk icons of the first half of the 18th century. The authors determined
  the painting techniques and artistic materials used by the first icon painters of the mining
  and metallurgical Ural. The phenomenon of the Old Believers’ Ural Region icon school of
  this period is doubted and questioned by some modern experts, but in fact this phenomenon
  is confirmed by the coincidence of technological features of the Nev’yansk icon “Our Lady of
  Egypt” (1734) and other icons of that period (identical processing of wooden panels, composition
  of prime and paints, style of so-called lichnόe (painting of exposed body parts) and
  dolíchnoe (painting of clothing), as well as the painting stratigraphy). The icons were obviously
  painted in a very small workshop. One technological factor speaks in favor of their Ural Region
  origin: the use of anhydrite as a filler for the prime. The technique of lichnόe is also very
  special— alternating layers of white paint and ocher when painting a carnation; in some cases
  applying the first modeling layer (white) directly over the sankir (proplasmos). The second
  point indicates the early Nev’yansk icon painters’ familiarity with the techniques of the court
  icon painters in the Armory in Moscow. The latter in turn agrees with the historical facts that
  from the 20–30s of the 18th century masters from the Volga Region who had previously been
  employed by the Armoury then moved to the Ural Region. In addition, the blue pigments are
  the most important chronological indicator for the icons of this period. The synthetic azurite
  predominates among the author’s paints; also, indigo and smalt are found, while Prussian blue
  is completely absent.
