Orthodox icon of Saint Kallistratos the Martyr 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.
St. Kallistratos was born in Carthage and raised as a pious Christian, following the footsteps of his ancestors and parents. He joined the Roman army during the reign of Diocletian and although a soldier he didn't stopped praying to Christ. His praying caused the hostility of the pagan soldiers who accused him to General Percentinus. Kallistratos was thrown into the sea in a sack to drown, but two dolphins tore the sack and saved him. The miracle converted the faith of 49 soldiers and enraged Percentinus who ordered the beheading of Kallistratos and the 49 martyrs. His feast day is on September 27.

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.
