Religious Panel with Saint Thérèse of Lisieux – Devotional Art Object (circa 1970–1990)

This religious panel depicting Saint Thérèse is a modern devotional art object from the late 20th century. The work is inspired by Byzantine iconography but differs technically and compositionally from traditional hand-painted icons.

At the center, Saint Thérèse is depicted, surrounded by clergy and saints in a solemn, narrative composition. While the iconographic style refers to religious traditions, the execution is clearly modern. At the bottom, a text/signature is visible referring to “Carmel…” along with a date (1977), confirming its 20th-century origin.
