Description

Handmade Hagiography of Jesus Christ the Almighty, on an aged piece of wood by the hand of Hieromonk Grigoriou

In all the history of the world, the only conqueror of decay and death is Christ. With his sacrifice on the cross, he finally defeated death and sin.

The Resurrection of Christ is the foundation of the Church. The incarnation of God marks the entrance of the eternal and imperishable into history. Into a world disintegrating in rot and decay, eternity, personified in Christ, invades as the possibility of overcoming death. The Resurrection of Christ constitutes the final victory over death, not only as a continuation of biological life but as immortality.

Christ is the Savior of the world and the Resurrection of mankind.

Jesus Christ appears in Orthodox Christian iconography with the epithet Pantokrator. The central dome (dome) of all Byzantine churches is painted with the image of the Almighty Jesus, while in the churches that lack a dome, in the style of the Basilica, the image is painted in the center of the ceiling.

Handmade Hagiography: Characteristics
This specific iconography comes from the Agiorite iconographer Hieromonk Grigorios from the Holy Cell of Agia Annis. It is crafted entirely by hand, on a naturally aged piece of wood. The colors used are consistent with the Byzantine tradition, while the work has been crafted according to the style of the Macedonian school, which is followed in the workshop of Hieromonk Grigorios.
This unique hagiography has a background of 22-carat gold leaf, while its surface is covered with pure beeswax, so that the colors remain bright over time.
