Hagiography occupies a valuable place in church art because beyond its self-evident artistic value, a hagiographic image unites man with the holiness of the depicted person.
All our Hagiographies are painted with egg tempera while you can choose the size of the image, the decoration of the background and the language of the inscriptions as well as the type of wood you wish to use.
Note: The final icon may differ slightly from the catalog photo.
