Byzantine Icons Reproductions

One of the most important forms of Byzantine art are the icons – painted images of Christ, the Virgin (particularly the Virgin and Child), or a saint, used as an object of veneration in Orthodox churches and private homes. Icons are not ordinary paintings. It is because of this importance the Byzantine icons hold in world art, they find their space here at the Ancient Sculpture Gallery’s Icons collection. We offer all the best masterpieces of Byzantine art, including recreation of all the icons from Constantinople and Thessalonica, the two major cultural and artistic centers of the empire. Our Byzantine icons are painted in the original and authentic Byzantine traditional style, the same way utilized by the Byzantine artists from the 5th to the 15th century. They are done the way on properly prepared linden wood and painted with the egg tempera technique. They are gilded with 24K gold leaf. We are true to the original Byzantine tradition in iconography, and are guided by the greatest Byzantine icon painters.
