High quality byzantine Orthodox handmade icons. Made in Greece and constructed in the traditional Orthodox manner.
Iconographer: Chr. Liondas
Commemorates on: November 2
Saint Kyriake was the daughter of Christian
parents, Dorotheus and Eusebia. She was given her name because she was born on
Sunday, the day of the Lord (in Greek, Kyriake). She contested in Nicomedia
during the reign of Diocletian, in the year 300. After many bitter torments she
was condemned to suffer beheading, but being granted time to pray first, she
made her prayer and gave up her holy soul in peace
The icon reproductions are created by iconographer monks of various Greek Orthodox monasteries in Greece and all images are approved replications by the Greek Orthodox Church. As icons are considered to be the Gospel in image, these images are accurate and true Orthodox renderings, not second-hand interpretations. The icon images are mounted on solid wood and protected from tarnish with a varnish finish that seals in colors and creates a shiny luster.
