Description

Aged-Wooden Byzantine Icon of Saint Polyxene.

Saint Polyxene came from Spain. Because of her beauty, she was kidnapped by a man and taken to Patras, where she turned to the Christians for protection.

She was baptized by Saint Andrew and together with her sister, Saint Xanthippe , dedicated herself to a great Christian work until the end of her life.

Troparion of Saint Xanthippe and Polyxen e

You received the light of the divine Faith, / and your works shone with piety, O divinely-inspired Polyxénē; / you glorified Christ in your life / as well as by your blameless actions; / therefore intercede with the Lord Who glorified you, to grant us great mercy.

The aging technique is meticulously applied to the Icon by hand and gives it the look of time while the depiction retains its artistic details.

Around the perimeter, the aging becomes more apparent with frayed edges that give the Icon a distinctive appearance.

During the final processing, the Aged-Wooden Icon of Saint Polyxene is polished with a special varnish to withstand time.

Note: The final Icon may slightly differ from the catalog photo.
