Our book is almost the first attempt to comprehend the truly terra incognita of Russian art culture. Her task is to present the Russian icon of the XVIII century as a large independent phenomenon of art; understand the logic of the development of its figurative language against the backdrop of a change in pan-European artistic styles that dominated secular genres; show in full scope the regional diversity and directions of professional and folk icon painting. For an illustrative series, monuments were mostly unpublished, scattered across numerous museum collections and existing churches in Russia. Icon painting of the XVIII century was published very little, and in order to confidently judge it, it is necessary to significantly expand the range of its famous monuments.
