Product Specifications

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

The Significance of Saint Kenneth

Saint Kenneth, also called Canice, or Kenny, Latin Canicus, Gaelic Chainnech, (born 515/516 or 521/527, Glengiven, County Derry, Ire.—died 599/600, Aghaboe, County Leix; feast day October 11), Irish abbot, monastic founder, and missionary who contributed to the conversion of the Picts. He is one of the most popular Celtic saints in Scotland (where he is called Kenneth) and in Ireland (where he is called Canice) and patron saint of the diocese of Ossory in Ireland.

Much of what has been written about his life is based on tradition. He is said to have studied under the abbots Finnian at Clonard, County Meath (543); Mobhi at Glasnevin, County Dublin (544); and Cadog at the important Welsh monastery at Llancarfan, Glamorganshire, where he was ordained priest in 545. He is thought to have visited Rome.

Kenneth was a close friend and associate of the celebrated Columba of Iona, whom he accompanied to the Scottish mainland to help Christianize the Picts. Near Inverness they met the Pictish king Brude Mac Maelchon, whom Kenneth allegedly paralyzed with the sign of the cross when he threatened them; Brude and his kingdom subsequently were converted.

Kenneth is also known to have ministered extensively in the offshore Scottish Hebrides islands. Testimony to his influence and travels is found in monastic and church ruins (e.g., Kil-Chainnech on Tyree Island) and places dedicated to his name, particularly the islet Inchkenneth. According to tradition, he established the ecclesiastical settlement that later developed into the royal Scottish burgh of St. Andrews, Fife.

Returning to Ireland (c. 577), Kenneth founded monasteries at Aghaboe and at Kilkenny, the capital of the Kingdom of Ossory.

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
