About the icon

As a young child Virgin Mary enters the Temple

According to tradition, when Mary was three years old her parents dedicated her to God and brought her to the Temple, accompanied by maidens carrying lamps. The icon shows Zacharias receiving her at the entrance, and often above, the child seated in the Holy of Holies, fed by an angel. The feast on 21 November is one of the twelve great feasts. This Museum Edition faithfully reproduces the icon on a flat panel, its background laid by hand in 22k 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 Premium Museum Standards Technique.

Once the wood panel is cut to the desired dimensions, our skilled craftsmen meticulously apply the 22 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.
