The paper discusses a group of twelve unpublished Russian icons depicting the Great Feasts which make up a selfcontained heortological-liturgical cycle and are kept at the Monastery of Saint Sabbas the Sanctified in the Judean Desert. These icons can be dated to the period 1548-1608, which saw the establishment of dynamic ties between the Palestinian monks of Slavic origin (primarily Serbs) and Russia.
