St. Larissa

An exquisite Greek Orthodox Icon of St. Larissa, handmade & handpainted by an expert Greek hagiographer.

Saint Larissa, also known as Martyr Larissa of Crimea, was one of twenty-six martyrs who were killed by the Goths around the year 375 under Jungerich, a persecutor of Christians. She is commemorated on October 23.

Made using traditional materials (selected aged timber frames, egg tempera, 24K gold leaf, natural powder paint and varnishes) and old techniques. It is an exact reproduction of an antique Byzantine masterpiece.

The icon bears the artist’s signature on the front and the certificate of authenticity on the back.

We can have any image or Christian scene hand made on commission. Please take a look at an indicative list of additional icons available, or contact us for more information.
