Icon of the Virgin Mary Holding the Child on Naturally Aged Wood
The collectible icon of the Virgin Mary Holding the Child is printed in serigraphy and mounted on naturally aged wood. Both the halo of the Virgin Mary and that of the infant Christ are carved, adding a special aesthetic to the image. The wood features cracks and a textured surface, elements that enhance the charm of the Byzantine style of the icon.
This is a beautiful icon of the Virgin Mary Holding the Child. The wood on which the icon is mounted comes from a renovated cell of Mount Athos, which the monks carefully preserved from the renovation work. They restored it according to traditional techniques used in wood-carved iconostases and transformed it into an icon.
Through the “Athonite Heritage,” these collectible icons can be found in the hands of those who long to hold a piece of the living Athonite tradition.
Since the icon is handmade and the wood processing is done by hand, there may be slight variations in the wood, but not in the depiction.
The icon is available upon request.
Origin: Mount Athos
Dimensions: 20 x 24.5 x 2 cm
