Aged-Wooden Byzantine Icon of Saint Margaret.
Saint Margaret was an abbess at the Monastery of Saint John the Baptist in Menzelinsk, Russia. With her knowledge, the monastery went through a long period of prosperity and she became a source of inspiration for all the nuns.
In 1918, in a miraculous way, Saint Margaret foresaw her death and gave instructions for her funeral. After many years, her indestructible relic was found after excavations.
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 Margaret is polished with a special varnish to withstand time.
