This modern and beautiful icon representation of the Holy Trinity is hand-painted on a solid wood base with a silver-plated cover with incredible ornate gold and silver accents. The entire icon is overlaid with a beautifully engraved, highly detailed repousse (high relief) gold and silver-plated metallic cover (also known as a "riza") with an attached 24-carat gold-plated halo. The riza uses a scrolled floral pattern to accent the subjects and covers the less important areas of the icon. Icon History : This icon depicts a type of the Holy Trinity as they appeared to Abraham and Sarah by the oaks of Mamre. Three Angels visited them, but they spoke as by one voice. One was the Angel of the Lord, in other words, the Lord Jesus Christ. He received worship, which only God can do. The three appeared as a type of the Trinity. There is an altar with a central chalice in the middle of the Three. This is to show the fellowship of love that exists from eternity past in the Holy Trinity Size:8" x 10.25" This icon is handmade to order. Please Allow 2-3 weeks for delivery |
