Aged-Wooden Byzantine Icon of Saint Lazarus Raising.
When Lazarus became seriously ill, his sisters notified his friend Jesus Christ, but he did not immediately go to Bethany to meet him. Instead, two days later, when Lazarus was already dead, Jesus traveled with his disciples to his tomb to raise him.
When he arrived, he met Mary and Martha, the sisters of Lazarus, and in front of them and his disciples he announced: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die".
Then, addressing Lazarus, he commanded: "Lazarus come out" and then the miracle happened. Lazarus came out of his tomb alive.
The aging technique is meticulously applied to the Icon by hand and gives it the look of time while the depiction retains its artistic details.
Around the perimeter, the aging becomes more apparent with frayed edges that give the Icon a distinctive appearance.
During the final processing, the Aged-Wooden Icon of Saint Lazarus Raising is polished with a special varnish to withstand time.
Note: The final Icon may slightly differ from the catalog photo.
