Christ the Blesser – Silk Screen Print on Naturally Aged Wood – Mount Athos

Description

Silk Screen Print of Christ the Blesser on Naturally Aged Wood

A beautiful icon created by a monk on Mount Athos. The distinctive feature of this image is that the base is made from wood from a restored cell.

This icon depicts Christ the Blesser, who, with His right hand raised, blesses the faithful. Jesus Christ gives His blessing to the people, to those for whom He came into the world, suffered, and was ultimately crucified.

He offered His life to save and deliver humanity from sin, decay, and death. Christ never refused His blessing to anyone, and He was the one who always approached not only the virtuous but also the lost, to stand by them and show them the way of God. With His hand, He blesses the whole world, demonstrating His boundless love for each person individually.

This particular icon, like all the icons in the same category, has been crafted on naturally aged wood, which comes from a cell of Mount Athos. Through “Agioritic Heritage,” these collectible icons can be found in the hands of people who long to hold a piece of the living Athonite tradition.

As the image is handmade and the wood treatment is done by hand, there may be slight variations in the wood, but not in the depiction.

The image is available upon order.
