A rectangular wooden icon panel, approximately 80-90 cm in height and 50-60 cm in width, is depicted behind a reflective glass surface within a museum setting. The icon, exhibiting significant craquelure, pigment loss, and visible cracks, primarily features a central religious scene with a warm, earthy color palette of ochre, sienna, deep red, black, and green. The central figure, presumed to be Jesus Christ, stands barefoot on a green ground, clad in a dark blue or black robe with a reddish undertunic. A golden halo encircles his head. His right arm is extended outwards and slightly upward, palm open, while his left hand is positioned over his chest, with two fingers extended. He has a dark beard and hair, with prominent dark eyes. To the left of the central figure, a group of five men is depicted. The foremost man, wearing a red tunic and dark robe, extends his left hand to touch the central figure's right forearm. Other figures in this group are similarly attired in tunics of red, brown, and black. Their faces are rendered with dark eyes and somber expressions, some with beards. To the right of the central figure, a group of four men stands. They are dressed in tunics and robes of red and dark colors. The figure closest to the central figure appears to have a beard. Their faces also feature dark eyes and solemn expressions. The background is defined by architectural elements, including two prominent doorways or arches in shades of gray and brown on the sides, and a central, more ornate archway above the central figure's head, set against a bright orange wall. The floor beneath the figures is a solid green. The image is photographed through protective glass, which displays prominent reflections of overhead fluorescent lighting, particularly in the upper left and upper right portions of the frame. Reflections also show a ceiling, a white wall, and part of a metal display stand supporting the icon. To the far left, behind the icon, parts of framed monochrome photographs or prints are visible on an adjacent wall. This artifact is located in a museum in Teteven, Bulgaria.
