Kuzma Konov was a leading workmaster in Olovyanishnikov Sons' icon workshop. His innovative and modern icons were particularly sought after among Moscow clientele in the 1910s. Comparable designs of icons depicting St Nicholas and decorated with mother-of-pearl are illustrated in Olovyanishnikov Sons' Catalogue, Moscow, 1915-1916, pp. 10, 14.
