Christ and Theotokos (Athos) Icon Set - Y027

From the earliest period of Christianity, the faithful have portrayed Christ and His mother the Theotokos in veneration. This set includes fresco icons of Christ and the Theotokos from Mount Athos, rich in traditional forms and hues. The icon of Christ, who holds the Gospel in one hand and blesses the beholder with the other, is reminiscent in design to the well-known Christ Pantocrater icon of Mount Sinai. In the second icon of the pair, the Theotokos gestures to her Son, the Savior of mankind.

The icons match well in this set through color and design placement, giving a sense of balance to both icons. This set will become a welcome focal point for any prayer corner.
