Saint Apostle Mark

The Evangelist | Apostle of Egypt

Mark wrote the second of the four Gospels and, according to ancient tradition, was a close companion of Saint Peter, whose preaching his Gospel records. He carried the faith to Egypt and became the first bishop of Alexandria, where he died a martyr. His symbol in iconography is the lion, and he is often shown seated, writing his Gospel. He is commemorated on 25 April and honoured as founder of the Church of Alexandria. In this Silver Relief the icon is presented in gold-plated silver relief on a panel.

This is an authentic Silver Plated artwork with Gold details, crafted according to Byzantine technique and style. The theme is reproduced using Advanced Museum Standards Technique.

Once the wood panel is cut to the desired dimensions, our skilled craftsmen meticulously apply the printed theme on the prepared surface and then the Silver Plating, 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.
