Christ Blessing – Aged Lithograph – Mount Athos

Description

Aged Lithograph with Christ Blessing

An exact replica of the original image, hand-crafted on natural fir wood. A wonderful aged lithograph depicting Christ Blessing, where Jesus Christ, with His right hand raised, blesses the faithful. Jesus Christ gives His blessing to the people—those for whom He came into the world, suffered, and was ultimately crucified. He offered His life to save humanity from sin, decay, and death. Christ never denied His blessing to anyone; He was the one who always approached not only the righteous but also the wayward, to stand by them and show them the path of God. With His hand, He blesses the entire world, showing His unlimited love for each person individually.

Lithograph – Characteristics

The technique of lithography is taught in the iconography workshops of Mount Athos and is used by many monks to create extraordinary works of art. In this particular case, the monk iconographer used a lithographed copy of Byzantine art and created this piece following the traditional method of handmade aging. Thus, he created a magnificent work with unique aesthetic value. The wood has been treated with the appropriate materials to ensure the longevity of the colors over time.

The icon is available upon request.
