These icon reproductions are prepared in the traditional Orthodox style: a fine detailed image is imported from Greece and mounted on solid wood. As icons are considered to be the Gospel in image, these images are accurate and true Orthodox renderings, not second-hand interpretations. The mounted image is covered with shellac to provide the luster of a traditional byzantine icon.
The icon is then covered with multiple layers of varnish to coat the image with a protective layer that shields the colors from fading and protects from humidity. This Icon also has a hook on the back enabling it to be hung on walls.
These icons are a true Orthodox image approved by the Eastern Orthodox Archdiocese.
Iconographer: Chr. Liondas
Commemorates on: October 9
