ArteNetwork Icone is a European Russian icon gallery based in Italy, dedicated to the study, authentication and curated selection of antique Russian icons.
This section presents the methodological framework guiding our evaluation process. Each icon is examined through structural, technical and iconographic criteria, integrating historical context and comparative study.
Russian icons are not merely devotional images. They are theological works structured through canonical forms, materials and symbolic language transmitted across centuries. Understanding this continuity is essential for serious collecting and historical assessment.

These studies aim to offer collectors and institutions a transparent understanding of how authenticity is assessed within our gallery.
