Dear Allan,
Here is a dictionary (actually a glossary) definition from a sort of
textbook on icons, according to which your first understanding is correct:
Ковчег - углубление в иконной доске, на которой пишется изображение.
Поле (поля) иконы - рама вокруг ковчега на иконной доске.
Лузга - скос между полем и ковчегом, служит условной границей между миром
зрителя и миром иконы.
(История илонописи. Истоки, традиции, современность VI-XX века. Москва

Kovcheg - uglublenie v ikonnoi doske, na kotoroi pishetsia izobrazhenie.
Pole (polia) ikony - rama vokrug kovchega na ikonnoi doske.
Luzga - skos mezhdu polem i kovchegom, sluzhit uslovnoi granitsei mezhdu
mirom zritelia i mirom ikony.
(Istoriia ikonopisi. Istoki, traditsii, sovremennost' VI-XX veka. Moscow
"ART-BMB" 2002.)
I wonder if something was lost in translation or editing between the two
Tarasov books--?
Best regards,
Margaret
