Saint John the Merciful. Russian Orthodox Icon. Saint John was the Patriarch of Alexandria in the early 7th century. He was a great almsgiver and defender of the poor helping all who came to him in need.

Icons manufactured by a Russian supplier using their proprietary process of applying successive layers of color and metallic-like patterns resulting in a brilliant, detailed, and nearly three dimensional appearance.

This icon is a high-resolution lithography print on hardboard, embellished with light-reflecting gold and silve foil.
