Aged-Wooden Byzantine Icon of Panagia Perivleptos (meaning Prominent). Panagia is depicted holding Jesus Christ in her arms.
This Icon of Panagia is located in the Holy Monastery of Panagia Perivleptou in the village of Politika in Evia. The Monastery was built in the 11th or 12th century and was re-founded in 1969.
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 of Panagia Perivleptos a distinctive appearance.
During the final processing, the Icon is polished with a special varnish to withstand time.
Note: The final Icon may slightly differ from the catalog photo.
