An ornate gold-toned metal cover, likely for a large religious text or icon, is displayed from an overhead perspective in an indoor workspace in Moscow, Russia. The cover features intricate bas-relief and five embedded enamel-on-metal oval panels. The central panel portrays the Ascension of Christ, depicting a robed figure ascending amidst clouds and light, flanked by smaller figures below. Elaborate bas-relief elements, including stylized sunbursts, foliage, and two winged angelic figures holding garlands, frame the central panel. Four corner oval panels depict the Four Evangelists: St. Matthew (top left), St. John (top right, in a pensive pose), St. Luke (bottom left), and St. Mark (bottom right). Each evangelist is shown with a halo, seated and writing on a scroll or book, and identified by Cyrillic script. The metalwork exhibits minor surface wear. The artifact rests on a white, textured fabric, with a green grid-patterned cutting mat partially visible in the background. in Moscow, Russia
