An exquisite Greek Orthodox Icon of St. Luke of Crimea with his surgical tools, handmade & handpainted by an expert Greek hagiographer.
Saint Luke, Bishop of Simferopol and Crimea, was also practicing as a surgeon and taught and published many books and articles on regional anesthesia and surgery. He is now known to be a world-famous pioneering surgeon.
He was announced as a Saint by the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in November of 1995. He is commemorated by the church on June 11>.
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.
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.
