About the icon
The Wonderworker and Triumphant
The mounted image of George, spear thrust into the dragon, shows the triumph of Christ over the power of evil, won through the saint's martyrdom. Many icons add the rescued princess, or the small boy he freed from captivity riding behind him. George, a Roman officer, was beheaded under Diocletian for confessing Christ. His feast is 23 April, moved to Easter Monday when it falls in Lent, and is a great name day. This Museum Edition faithfully reproduces the icon on a raised panel, its background laid by hand in matte 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 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.

Presque parfait. Quelques imperfections mais rien de grave. Cela ne changera en rien la prière 😊❤️ Merci pour le petit bracelet en cadeau et pour le mot. Que Dieu vous bénisse.

Good quality, just two little imperfections but nothing that can bother me from praying and from Saint George to intercede 😉 Christos Anesti!

BEAUTIFUL!!! It looks exactly like the portrait in the images provided. It comes along with a great protective black case too so you don't have to worry about the portrait possibly getting damaged during its delivery :) Great quality and definitely met my expectations xox
Absolutely gorgeous! Love this so much! Gave it to my father in law for his name day! It meant the world to him. Brought a big smile on his face that I haven't seen in quite some time.
