[QUOTE]Originally posted by malibudusul: [QB] Black People, True Exorcist! Diptych: St Nicholas Exorcising the Devil and St Nicholas Rescuing Dmitri Northern Russia, 17th century with later applied basma 23.5 x 40.4 cm (open) Note: A similar diptych of the same size but with two other scenes from the Vita of St Nicholas is in the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, California USA. This diptych without any doubt comes from the same Vita icon as the diptych presented here. The left panel of the diptych (skladen) shows St Nicholas Exorcising the Devil and the right panel shows St Nicholas Rescuing Dmitri. The gilded silver oklad of this diptych is decorated with floral ornaments. The diptych consists of two panels which originally formed parted of a large Vita icon of St Nicholas. These two separate scenes were put together as a diptych at a later date.
