Amazing

Exceptionally beautiful. I ordered the 7.9 x 11. It has a recessed edge which adds subtle depth and creates a soft framing of the image. The colors are rich and sharp. The gold leaf is brilliant. The fidelity of the print is marvelous. It feels very sturdy as well. I am beyond pleased with this icon.

Beautiful

I ordered the 5 x 7 size. The icon is very beautiful. The quality is exceptional. The case that it comes in is a very nice added touch. I did have a question about my order and the response was very quick and very kind. Shipping was timely and very well packaged. I look forward to purchasing additional icons from this vendor. God Bless.

Excellent quality

Truly beautiful.

The Resurrection

$115.00

The Story Behind This Icon:

The icon of the Resurrection, also known as “Christ’s Descent into Hades” and “the Anastasis”, is the icon of Easter, celebrating Jesus’ triumph over death. The icon depicts Jesus Christ descending into Hades and pulling Adam and Eve from the tombs, symbolizing His victory back to the very beginning of mankind. The two golden bars under Jesus’ feet (note that His feet and hands still carry the signs of His crucifixion) are the gates of Hades which He has broken open. On the left of the icon, we see David and Solomon, representing those who died before Jesus’ crucifixion, waiting patiently in Hades for their Messiah. On the right side of the icon, we see Abel as a shepherd, the first person to die as a result of the Fall, as well as Saint John the Baptist. In the darkness below, keys, locks & chains symbolize that He has entered and conquered both death and Hades.

The Resurrection

During this Lenten season , I wanted to add to my portfolio of icons depicting the Lord’s ‘trampling death by death’ with the hope of his ‘Anastasi’ resurrection. The quality and workmanship of this item is breathtaking and stands out among my collection (see the Ivón at the center of my wall). It brings to life the power of His triumph over the Devil in Hades. From the time I ordered this product to delivery by USPS took only 5 days . The product was in a beautiful case and I received a small cross to add to the experience. I plan to purchase more of these quality icons from Athonite as a result .

Heaven on Earth!

I ordered the Resurrection icon (size 8"x10", recessed style), which arrived today. It was packaged with great care and attention.

When I opened the USPS box and saw the icon's presentation box, I was already impressed. This will be a Baptism gift for a husband and wife, and the presentation boxing is beautiful (see the above video).

When I opened the presentation box, the beauty of the icon was simply overwhelming! The gold background it heavenly, and the detail of the image is lovely. The mounting is beyond study. This icon was made to last.

I am completely satisfied with the quality and beauty of this icon and highly recommend Athonite.

breath taking

Excellently beautiful. You can tell the nice handy work that goes into their handmade Icons.

The Resurrection

I just wanted to say thank you for my magnificent icon of the Holy Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It took my breath away. The workmanship is impeccable! After a rough day at work, what a true Blessing from God to come home to this beautiful piece of art.

Blessings to you always …

The Adoration of the Magi/Kings - Athonite

The Adoration of the Magi/Kings

$115.00

The Story Behind This Icon:

This beautiful icon is the traditional scene of the biblical Magi, also known as the Three Kings, presenting their gifts (gold, frankincense and myrrh) to the newborn baby Jesus. The Magi were astronomers from Persia, and saw the star years before Christ’s birth. Having never before seen anything like this, they decided to travel to the star. Upon arrival in Bethlehem, they found the stable in which Jesus was born and bestowed their gifts.

In that same area of Bethlehem, shepherds who were tending their sheep, also saw an extraordinary light surrounding them as well as an Angel who proclaimed to them the news of the Lord’s joyous Nativity, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will towards men” (Luke 2:8-14), was heard from the Heavenly Powers.

Work of the iconographer Lazaros Pechlivanidis.
