Item description from the seller
down arrow

On the 8th of July, the Orthodox Church celebrates a very special feast —  the day of Saint Peter and Fevronia.

These two saints from the 13th century, Peter and Fevronia, are considered the patron saints of family, love, and fidelity.

The Duke of Russian city Murom Peter met Fevronia (a peasant girl) when she cured him of a disease using her knowledge of herbs. They eventually married, even though they came from completely different backgrounds.

This icon is an imitation of a handwritten one, made on a wooden base by digital UV printing on gilding.
Artificial gold is applied to the wooden board, after which a special machine accurately copies the handwritten image, and transfers it to the workpiece with mineral paints, fixing them with ultraviolet light.
After printing, the icon is varnished, which guarantees the durability of the image. Mineral paints give freshness and purity of colors, do not fade in the sun and do not fade with time. A finished icon can easily be confused with a handwritten (handpaint) one.
