Aged-Wooden Byzantine Icon of Saint Apollo.
Saint Apollo was martyred during the reign of Diocletian for his faith along with Arius, Gorgias, Irene, Leonidas, Markianus, Nicander, Pamvo, Selenia and Hyperechius.
The ten Christians from Egypt were imprisoned because they did not deny their faith and remained faithful to the Word of God.
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 Apollo is polished with a special varnish to withstand time.
Note: The final Icon may slightly differ from the catalog photo.
