It has been covered with varnish to keep the colors undiluted in time and humidity. Hanging clip included on the back of the icon.

Saint Phanourios was unknown to the Christian Church until the 14th century AD when his icon was found in Rhodes, depicting him as a young soldier with the twelve martyrdoms painted around him. A Holy Temple was rebuilt on the spot and Saint Phanourios became the island's patron saint. The miracles are many and are remembered by the Christian Church and the faithful. On the eve of his feast (August 27), the congregation make "Fanouropita", a pie that looks like a small loaf of bread, which they distribute to the poor, while tradition says that the pie can "reveal" (as its name suggests) things to those who make it.

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.
