Product Specifications

  • Craftsmanship: This byzantine icon is a lithography with a double layer of varnish for vivid colors and water resistance depicting Jesus Christ Sinai blessing the world. It is a God-inspired work that follows the Athonite technique, which gives the icon its religious and aesthetic value.

The Significance of Jesus Christ Sina

The Christ Pantocrator of St. Catherine’s Monastery at Sinai is one of the oldest Eastern Roman religious icons, dating from the 6th century AD. It is the earliest known version of the pantocrator style that still survives today, and is regarded by historians and scholars to be one of the most important and recognizable works in the study of Byzantine art as well as Eastern Orthodox Christianity.

For a time the icon was thought to have been dated from the thirteenth century, since it had been almost completely painted over at that time, but it was concluded in 1962 that it is in fact from the mid-sixth century, although the exact date of production is still unknown. When Saint Catherine’s Monastery was founded by the Byzantine emperor Justinian I, late in his reign, between 548 and 565, it enjoyed imperial patronage and donations from Justinian and his court, with the Christ Pantocrator icon having been one of the many possible imperial gifts. Because of this, it is generally believed to have been produced in the Byzantine capital of Constantinople.

Many agree that the icon represents the dual nature of Christ, illustrating traits of both man and God, perhaps influenced by the aftermath of the ecumenical councils of the previous century at Ephesus and Chalcedon. Christ’s features on his left side (the viewer's right) are supposed to represent the qualities of his human nature, while his right side (the viewer's left) represents his divinity. His right hand is shown opening outward, signifying his gift of blessing, while the left hand and arm is clutching a thick Gospel book.

fin, men yttersta lagret, lacken var bortskavd på ett ställe och fortsatte att skavas av när man rör den. men försäljaren ska skicka en ny, så det blir nog bra ändå.

My Icon arrived slightly damaged with a couple of small dent marks due to being bashed about during delivery. However, I’m so blown away by the beauty of this piece that I don’t care. I’m taking a long time to set up my prayer corner and I’m looking forward to this being front and centre. It’s absolutely stunning. And I received it on my birthday! Which was so beautiful because I live alone and it was like getting a present from God and yes I cried. Thank you to the seller for everything. I couldn’t be happier with my Icon and I will be ordering more in future. May God bless you all ☦️

Das Bild/ Die Ikone ist von sehr guter Qualität und sieht sehr schön aus. Auf der Rückseite gibt es auch eine Metallöse, wodurch die Ikone sich z.B. an einem Nagel aufhängen lässt. Alles in allem ein sehr gelungenes Bild/ Ikone, die ich wieder kaufen würde.

Excellent quality reproduction icon and at a very reasonable price. It arrived well packaged and sober than expected. Very good value and service.

Handmade in Greece since 1978.

Every piece leaves our workshop finished by hand — the wood prepared, the image laid, the surface aged and varnished. One at a time, the way Greek icon workshops have worked for generations.

We make them to be lived with: held in prayer, hung in a quiet corner, passed on.

"Come close to God, and God will come close to you." — James 4:8
