EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of Panagias [enkolpia] in the vestry of the Ipatievsky Monastery in Kostroma, dating back to 1911. Created by Sergey Mikhaylovich Prokudin-Gorsky, this close-up image showcases a pair of jeweled brooches that hold deep religious significance within Russian Orthodox Christianity. The detailed craftsmanship and decorative artistry of these encolpions are truly mesmerizing, reflecting the rich heritage and history of the monastery. The vibrant colors captured through Prokudin-Gorsky's color separation negative technique bring these religious icons to life, allowing viewers to appreciate every intricate detail. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to early 20th-century Russia, where faith and tradition were deeply intertwined with everyday life. The Library of Congress has preserved this piece as part of its Meeting of Frontiers collection, ensuring that future generations can continue to admire and study these historical artifacts. Through Prokudin-Gorsky's lens, we not only see a beautiful piece of jewelry but also glimpse into a world where religion played a central role in shaping cultural identity.
