The Significance of the Composition

This cross gathers in a single piece the figures most beloved in the Orthodox home: Christ as Saviour of the World at the centre, the Virgin Mary in her tender Glykophilousa type, the Archangel Michael as protector, and three of the most venerated modern Greek saints — Saint Porphyrios of Kafsokalyvia, Saint Paisios of Mount Athos and Saint Iakovos of Evia. Together they form a small iconostasis in the shape of the Cross, made to stand at the heart of a family prayer corner.
