Sankir" and the Aging of Ancient Paint (The Main Material Culprit) The most common reason for the extreme darkness in centuries-old Orthodox icons is a natural chemical transformation over time: • The "Sankir" Base Layer: Orthodox iconographers always start painting a face by layering a dark, greenish-brown or olive-drab base paint called sankir. Flesh tones and highlights are painted on top of this dark base. • The Darkening of Varnish: Once finished, icons were coated in a protective linseed oil varnish called olifa. Over a period of 50 to 100 years, olifa naturally oxidizes and turns pitch black, trapping the icon in darkness. • The Result: When smoke from church candles, soot, and aged varnish accumulate over centuries, the bright highlight layers underneath fade or dissolve, leaving mostly the dark sankir base visible. Many famous "Black Icons" (like the San Nicola Nero in Bari, Italy) or ancient Russian icons look dark strictly due to centuries of chemical aging.
