About the icon
The Herdsman of Tekoa | Third of the Twelve Minor Prophets
Amos was a shepherd and a tender of sycamore figs in Judah when God sent him to prophesy in the northern kingdom of Israel in the eighth century before Christ. He rebuked the wealthy for oppressing the poor and called the people back to justice and true worship. One of the Twelve Minor Prophets, he is commemorated on 15 June and is shown in icons as a venerable prophet holding a scroll. Painted entirely by hand in tempera, this original is set on a recessed panel with a 24k gold leaf background.
This is a 100% Handwritten artwork crafted according to Byzantine technique and style, totally painted by hand with 24 karats Gold Leaves background. Once the theme is painted by our skilled craftsmen, a mounting point and the Certificate of Authenticity and Quality are installed at the back of the icon.
All of our artworks bear the studio’s distinctive title and logo. This icon is totally Handmade and though it may have very slight differences from the photos shown.

This was the first icon that i got from here. and when it arrived the custom lettering in finnish had two faults, but i talked with Alex about it got it sorted out. I sent the icon back and got it with the exact lettering that i wanted, and the icon is beautiful. Amazing customer service and a spectacular work on the icon!
