Handmade Byzantine Icon of the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ on Mount Tabor.
The Transfiguration of Jesus Christ is one of the most important miracles of Jesus Christ as it reveals his divinity and manifests His miraculous power.
According to the Gospels, the disciples John, James and Peter went up the mountain with Jesus Christ to pray. In order to rest they fell into a deep sleep. When they awoke they saw Jesus Christ dressed in white vestments shining with light. Next to him, standing upright, were the Prophets Moses and Elijah.
The icon of the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ is an exact copy of Byzantine art and is created by experienced craftsmen using the method of gold printing where hagiographic leaves of 22 karat gold are applied in detail to decorate the background.
During the final processing, the icon is painted with dark red color around the perimeter and polished with a special varnish to maintain its shine.
It is offered in level or recessed wooden surface and is suitable for wall mounting.
