The icon is painted using traditional technique - egg tempera on wood. For the background we use 23 karat genuine gold leaf.
The wood board is traditionally covered with a linen cloth and several layers of gesso (levkas). At the end the board is sanded to a smooth finish. After the painting process is completed, several layers of varnish are applied for long lasting protection.
