Cross-shaped icon with print on wood, made in Greece, size: 24x17cm.
Cross in shaped wood with silkscreen printing of the Body of Christ. The edges are in relief.
The cross is made in Mount Athos in Greece. The crucifixion is a copy of a modern Greek icon painted in the classical Byzantine tradition, using the effect of artificial aging. The image is applied to a wooden base, aging is imitated by cracks and patina. The halo and background are hand-gilded with potala, and some details on the icon are also hand-painted.
This beautiful Orthodox Wall Cross is hand-crafted in our own Legacy Icons Wood Shop. At 7x9,5 inches (24 x 17 cm), this Cross makes a perfect centerpiece for your home icon corner, or any location.
Although it is popularly associated with Russian Orthodoxy in particular, the Three-Bar Cross is actually an Orthodox monastic symbol, being depicted most prominently on the Great Schema worn by senior monks and nuns of all Orthodox backgrounds. It is a symbol of the Lord's Passion, as well as His self-emptying love that all Christians seek to emulate.
