This finely crafted Orthodox icon of St. Euphrosynus the Cook is made using the traditional lithography technique, featuring a double varnish layer for water resistance and lasting durability. The icon undergoes handmade artificial aging, giving it an antique, timeless appearance that reflects the sacred beauty of Byzantine iconography. Created by an artisan trained in the Monasteries of Mount Athos, this icon is a testament to authentic Orthodox craftsmanship and deep spiritual tradition.

St. Euphrosynus the Cook, a humble monk of the 9th century, is a beloved saint known for his simplicity, humility, and the miracle of the heavenly garden. While serving as a cook in a monastery, he lived a life of quiet obedience and hidden holiness. According to tradition, a fellow monk experienced a vision in which he visited paradise and saw St. Euphrosynus gathering fruit. Upon awakening, the monk found fresh fruit beside him, confirming the vision and revealing Euphrosynus' sanctity. His feast day is celebrated on September 11th, honoring his example of humility and the joy of God's kingdom.

In Orthodox iconography, St. Euphrosynus is often depicted holding branches of fruit, symbolizing the heavenly rewards of a pure and faithful heart. His image serves as a reminder that the kingdom of God belongs to those who embody humility, service, and unwavering trust in God’s providence.

This Orthodox icon can be hung on a wall or placed on a flat surface, making it an inspiring addition to any prayer corner or sacred space. It encourages reflection on the virtues of simplicity, obedience, and the eternal joys that come from serving God with a pure heart.
