A beautiful Greek Orthodox icon of St. Agape, handmade & hand painted

Saint Agape together with her sisters, Chionia, and Irene (meaning Love, Purity, and Peace) were three virgin sisters born in Thessaloniki who, according to Christian tradition, were martyred for their faith in the year 304 AD. 

Made using traditional materials (selected aged timber frames, egg tempera, 24K gold leaf, natural powder paint and varnishes) and old techniques. It is an exact reproduction of an antique Byzantine masterpiece.
