Size

Orthodox icon of Saint Metrophanes the First Patriarch of Constantinople on thick plywood 20mm, which does not sting and keeps its shape over time. Preparation with acrylic stucco and have been used acrylic colors. It has been covered with varnish to keep the colors undiluted in time and humidity. Hanging clip included on the back of the icon. 

NOTICE: This icon is not painted by me...the photo depicts the Saint on mural fresco from a monastery of Mount Athos. If you order this Saint you will receive the same style of icon with a little different colors. 

Saint Metrophanes was raised by pagan parents but became a Christian at a young age. He became bishop of Byzantium in the year 315, and during his episcopacy Saint Constantine made Byzantium the capital of the Roman Empire, naming it New Rome. He was not able to attend the First Ecumenical Council in 325 because of his old age, and he reposed later that year. His feast is celebrated on June 4.

Care Instructions

My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.

Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.

Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
