A beautiful lithography with double varnish with gold tones to ensure long lasting in time and water proof properties with the representation of Saint Francis of Assisi. An artwork following the Athonian techniques to the letter created with love and patience. The creator applied the process of artificial ageing and added a handmade metal finish to give this icon unique aesthetic value.


Francis of Assisi (born Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone; Italian: Francesco d'Assisi; Latin: Franciscus Assisiensis; 1181 or 1182 – 3 October 1226), was an Italian Catholic friar, deacon, and mystic.[3] He founded the men's Order of Friars Minor, the women's Order of St. Clare, the Third Order of St. Francis and the Custody of the Holy Land. Francis is one of the most venerated religious figures in Christianity.[1]


Pope Gregory IX canonized Francis on 16 July 1228. Along with Catherine of Siena, he was designated patron saint of Italy. He later became associated with patronage of animals and the natural environment, and it became customary for churches to hold ceremonies blessing animals on his feast day of 4 October. In 1219, he went to Egypt in an attempt to convert the sultan al-Kamil and put an end to the conflict of the Fifth Crusade.[4] Once his community was authorized by the Pope, he withdrew increasingly from external affairs.


Francis is known for his love of the Eucharist.[5] In 1223, Francis arranged for the first Christmas live nativity scene.[a][6][7] According to Christian tradition, in 1224 he received the stigmata during the apparition of a Seraphic angel in a religious ecstasy.[8]


Can be hung on a wall or placed on a flat surface.

Leider ist die Ikone beschädigt angekommen...

Leider ist die Ikone beschädigt angekommen. Am Sonntag wollten wir die unserem Pfarrer schenken. Wir sind total enttäuscht.
Ich warte auf eine neue unbeschädigte Ware.
PS: Es war sehr schnelle Antwort von dem Verkäufer. Er ist mir auf nette Weise entgegengekommen. Es ist mir versprochen worden die Ware mit Express nachzuliefern. Ich hoffe, dass diesmal die Ware unbeschädigt ankommt und wir das Geschenk mit Verspätung überreichen werden.
