 Hi mishaxenia,
Yes, благословение родителей (blessing from parents). 19(?)8.
At the bottom (the Church Slavonic language): "Святая Икона сия письма Князя Михаила Huh'' - "This Holy Icon is painted by Prince Michail (patronymic)". I hope I will read the last word if you will make a bigger foto))

Can anyone help me translate this correctly?  It's a stanza from a poem by Zhukovsky, and I'm having a little trouble with the syntax...

"Увидел я царевну молодую,

Невесту севера; и на меня

Она глаза склонила мимоходом:

И скрылось все..."

"I saw a young princess,

Bride of the North, and for me

She lowered her eyes in passing:

And all disappeared ... "
