The image depicts an icon, likely displayed in the city of Kronstadt, Russia, given the inscription at the bottom. The icon is housed in an ornate, gilded frame with decorative motifs. The central scene of the icon illustrates the biblical event of Jesus Christ raising Lazarus from the dead. Jesus, depicted with a halo and wearing a blue robe over a red garment, stands to the left of the frame. He gestures with his right hand towards Lazarus, who is shown emerging from a tomb or sarcophagus. Lazarus, with a beard and wearing an orange robe, is depicted with his arms raised and his body partially uncovered, suggesting his resurrection from death. Above Jesus, an angel with wings and a halo flies down, with rays of light emanating from the heavenly realm. In the background, several figures are observing the scene from a stone structure that appears to be a bridge or walkway. One figure, a man with a beard and a grey garment, is seated near Lazarus's tomb. The environment depicted in the icon is stylized and symbolic, with a blue, wavy representation of water in the foreground and stone architectural elements. The background features a golden sky or aura. The overall style is consistent with traditional Eastern Orthodox iconography. The inscription at the bottom of the icon likely provides further details about its provenance or subject matter.
