Saint Anthony the Great
Father of All Monks
This is an authentic icon crafted according to Byzantine technique and style. All parts are made by hand and only the theme is reproduced using Advanced Silk Screen Technique.
Once the natural wood panel is cut to the desired dimensions, our skilled craftsmen meticulously apply the Matte Gold Leaves on the background. Then the theme is directly printed on the prepared surface, resulting to an exquisite work of art.
At the back of the icon, a mounting point is installed, accompanied by our Certificate of Authenticity and Quality. At the small sized icons a stand is also available. All of our artworks bear the studio’s distinctive title and logo.
A thorough quality inspection takes place before we secure the package with durable protective materials to ensure safe delivery.
Each icon is made to order. Once your order is ready to ship, you will receive the retail receipt and the tracking information via email.
Preparation period of this artwork is 6-10 days.
We deliver worldwide with FedEx & DHL Express, with Standard shipping (8-10 business days) and Express shipping (1-3 business days).

Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ για την ποιότητα της εικόνας και την ταχύτητα της αλληλογραφίας.
The icon is indescribably beautiful, very good quality and I also received a very nice box as a gift from Alex. I can only recommend ordering here, he does a very good job :)
What an amazing icon! The craftsmanship is incredible. The packaging is amazing as well. Kudos! Will definitely be purchasing more in future
I ordered the icon of St. Anthony the Great as a gift for a person whose patron is the saint. I discovered Agiografia on line and I am delighted with the quality of the icon and its beauty. I greatly appreciate the care and thoroughness with which the icon was prepared for shipment. I am very pleased with my first experience with Agiografia. Thank you, Alex, and everyone involved.
I was recently looking for a gift to mark a significant event in my own life. I found an amazing icon shop, Agiografia, in Thessaloniki, Greece. Here they craft, with love, icons in the Mt. Athos tradition: solid wood construction, gold leaf finish, intricate paint strokes, images of the eternal. They even offer free shipping to the US, so I gave it a shot. Well today, to my delight, after diligent Fed Ex email updates, I received a weighty package. It had 6 layers of careful wrapping, with an invoice in Greek and English, and a handwritten note of thanks and prayer. I felt like I was unwrapping something from another age. And the contents? A stunning icon of the father of monasticism, St. Anthony; it now hangs in a central place in my office. Far from being an item I will soon forget, the icon is an instrument of spiritual presence, linking past and present – and me – to the eternal.
