Iconostasion Panel

The chapel of Saints Cosmas and Damian is at the southwest corner of the Sinai basilica. The holy table faces east, but the iconostasion is aligned with the wall of the basilica. The panel beneath the icon of the All-holy Theotokos depicts a repeating pattern of rosebuds. The iconostasion dates from the eighteenth century.
