The Significance of Saint Athena
Saint Athena is one of the 40 Holy Virgins. They lived during the time of the Roman Emperor Licinius in Adrianople, Thrace. The leaders of the region arrested them as Christians and urged them to worship idols. All of them denied and then they were martyred. They celebrate on September 1st.
This wonderful icon has been created with the technique of lithography. The creator of this icon learned the canon of iconography in the workshops of the monasteries of Mount Athos, where he was taught both lithography and hand-ageing.

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
