Summary/Abstract: This contribution explores paper icon templates from the collection of the Museum of the Russian icon in Moscow. The selected examples are associated with the Moscow icon-painting circles of the 19th century and linked to people who professed the so-called Old Belief. All pieces were traced from 17th century icons produced in the Tsar’s workshops, in particular, from the artworks commonly related with the icon-painters working on the commission of the Stroganov family.
