Saint Christopher was a man with a dog-like appearance who became a Christian and was known for his great strength. He was persecuted by the king who feared him and attempted to send his soldiers to arrest him. These soldiers turned into Christians and then the king ordered their execution. He then tried to deceive the Saint with two women, but they also became Christians themselves! So the King put Saint Christopher through various tortures, including being nailed to a brass instrument and cast into a well with a stone tied to him. Despite all these trials, Saint Christopher continued to proclaim his faith and eventually was beheaded, receiving the crown of martyrdom.
Saint Christopher is the patron of drivers.
Feast Day is on May 9.
Museum Quality Technique
These icons are reproduced according to Museum Standards Technique.
Blue Colored
Once the wood panel is cut to the desired dimensions, our crafters carefully prepare the icon surface.
A mounting point is placed at the back of the icon, along with the Certificate of Authenticity and Quality. Each of our icons bears the studio's unique title and logo.
Theme application & final details
After preparing the wood panel, the Museum Standards technique is implemented. The theme is painted mechanically directly on the prepared surface and our crafters finish the artwork by painting a delicate brown border.
The icon goes through quality inspection and then is placed into a case. Finally it is carefully wrapped into our Protection Packaging and is ready to ship! The whole crafting and preparation procedure takes about 4-9 business days from the moment you place your order.
