EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Joachim, the esteemed Patriarch of Moscow from 1674 to 1690. Painted by an anonymous Russian artist in the 17th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece is now housed at the Ostankino Palace Theatre Museum in Moscow, Russia. Joachim, a prominent figure in Eastern Orthodox Christianity, was not only known for his religious leadership but also for his opposition to the Raskol or Old Believer schism. With a long flowing beard and adorned with jewels and a mitre, he exudes authority and wisdom. The oval-shaped composition emphasizes his importance as a spiritual leader. In this painting, Joachim extends his hand in blessing and benediction while holding a cross—a symbol of faith and salvation. His piercing gaze seems to penetrate one's soul, leaving an indelible impression on anyone who beholds it. The fine details captured by the artist bring forth both Joachim's inner strength and external regality. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history of Russian Orthodoxy and its influential figures like Joachim. As an out-of-copyright artwork available through www. bridgemanimages. com, this portrait offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance without any commercial implications.
