Nell’effigie del metropolita Aleksij in pendant a quest’icona (Galleria Tret’jakov), ci imbattiamo in un curioso esempio di rielaborazione dell’architettura paleologa in uno spirito russo: nella scena della «Resurrezione dell’infante morto», il ciborio sostenuto da tre colonne e con due frontoni si trasforma nella raffigurazione stilizzata di un campanile, in cui sono appese le campane. Same text on Russian icons - this is the last one!) thanks SUE
