From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniil Chyorny (Russian: Даниил Чёрный) (c. 1360 – 1430) was a Russian iconographer.

Together with his companion Andrei Rublev and other painters, Daniil Chyorny worked at the Assumption Cathedral in Vladimir (1408) and Trinity Cathedral in the Troitse-Sergiyeva Lavra in Sergiyev Posad (1420s). Some icons for these cathedrals are believed to have been painted by Daniil Chyorny. The icons of the Assumption Cathedral are currently displayed at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow and Russian Museum in St. Petersburg.
