An exquisite Greek Orthodox Icon of St. Alice.
St. Alice was a 13th-century Belgian mystic and saint. She was born in Schaerbeek, a suburb of Brussels, and was known for her devotion to God and her charitable works.
Alice was married to a carpenter, and together they had three children. She was known for her kindness and generosity, often giving away her possessions to the poor and sick. She was also deeply spiritual, spending much of her time in prayer and contemplation.
Alice died in 1250, and she was canonized as a saint by Pope John XXII in 1323. St. Alice feast day is celebrated on June 15th, and she is the patron saint of carpenters and woodworkers.
Made using traditional materials (selected aged timber frames, egg tempera, 24K gold leaf, natural powder paint and varnishes) and old techniques.
The icon bears the artist’s signature on the front and the seal of authenticity on the back.
