Icon of Christ and His Apostles, egg tempera painting on a triptych, mid-20th century

A true gem of Orthodox Christian religious craftsmanship from Greece, this triptych was painted using the egg tempera technique, which involves painting with a mixture of egg yolk and pigments.

The high quality of this painting attests to the Christian devotion of its Greek creator. Greek artists are true masters of the art of tempera, and here, the work faithfully reproduces models from the Byzantine Empire with highlights in gold leaf. The certificate of authenticity for this piece is located on the back.

The scene depicted in this triptych is one of the most iconic in Christianity: Jesus accompanied by his twelve apostles, with the tree symbolizing Jesus through its trunk, and each of them representing a branch of that tree.

Fast and careful shipping to France, Europe, and worldwide.
