Additional Notes & Condition Report
Regarding the markings, there are two silver marks located near the lower left corner of the main panel: the first is a two-letter monogram (appears to be in cyrillic, possibly Hr?); the second mark is the zolotnik and kokoshnik mark contained within an oval reserve: female head in side profile, facing right, and the numeral 84. The kokoshnik mark (facing right) would indicate the icon was made after 1908
