About the icon

The Fall of Adam and Eve

Genesis tells how Adam and Eve disobeyed God's command, lost the communion of Eden and were sent out of Paradise, its gate guarded by the cherubim. The icon shows our first parents going out of the garden in sorrow. The Church recalls the expulsion on Cheesefare Sunday, the eve of Great Lent, when the faithful ask forgiveness of one another and begin the journey of repentance back towards Paradise. This Museum Edition faithfully reproduces the icon on a recessed panel, its background laid by hand in 18k gold leaf.

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 Museum Standards Technique.

Once the natural wood panel is cut to the desired dimensions, our skilled craftsmen meticulously apply the 18 karats 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. 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.
