St. Drostan

A beautiful Greek Orthodox icon of St. Drostan, handmade & hand painted by an expert Greek hagiographer.

St. Drostan  (b. early 7th century) was the founder and abbot of the monastery of Old Deer in Aberdeenshire. His relics were later translated to the church at New Aberdour and his holy well lies nearby. St. Drostan is credited as being the founder of the Chapel of St. Tear near Ackergill in Wick parish on the east coast of Caithness.

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.
