Christ of Sinai with Virgin Mary & Saint John, 62×60 cm

Discover our exclusive collection of handmade Byzantine icons, crafted with devotion and deep respect for the Orthodox tradition. Every piece is entirely handmade in our workshop in Greece and reflects the timeless beauty and spirituality of Byzantine art.

Product Description
This sacred and unique iconostasis includes high-quality reproductions of Christ Pantocrator, based on the holy icon of Christ of Sinai, framed by the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Forerunner in the traditional Deesis composition.

The central icon depicts Christ blessing with His right hand, while holding the Holy Gospel in His left, symbolizing His role as Divine Teacher and Judge.

To His left stands the Virgin Mary, with an expression of love and intercession for humanity. To His right stands Saint John the Forerunner, dressed in ascetic garments, shown in prayer as the Forerunner of Christ.

This classic sacred trio expresses the essence of Orthodox theology: Christ as Savior and Judge, with the Virgin Mary and the Forerunner interceding for the salvation of all.

The iconostasis features dome-shaped tops on all three sections. Above the Virgin Mary and Saint John are six-winged Seraphim depicted within smaller iconographic panels.

Features finely carved wooden details, including a central carved cross, visible when the hanging oil lamp hook is not in use.

The piece is connected with antique-style metal hinges and can be placed either on a wall, shelf, or table. With the addition of a hanging oil lamp, it becomes a complete home prayer corner.

Please note: The hanging oil lamp and metal hook are not included. They can be ordered separately through the available product options.

Artistic Process
All our icons are faithful reproductions of authentic Byzantine originals. They are created with high-quality lithographic printing on paper mounted on canvas, which is then applied to solid fir wood (never MDF). Each piece is enhanced with artistic touches, our signature aging technique, and protected with eco-friendly water-based varnish for maximum durability.

Every piece is unique and may show slight variations due to the handmade process.

Materials Used
Solid fir wood, iron, canvas, paper, and in some cases bronze, copper, fabric, and 8-karat gold leaf (on select icons or by request).

We use exclusively solid natural wood for authenticity and durability — never MDF.

Certificate of Authenticity
Every icon comes with a certificate of authenticity. Alexandros Stratoulis is an official member of the Greek Chamber of Fine Arts. All design and craftsmanship take place at the GENESIS workshop using our traditional aging technique.
