An exact copy of the icon of the Virgin Portaitissa of the Holy Monastery of Iviron on Mount Athos, traditionally attributed to the Evangelist Luke. It was created using advanced imaging technology, with particular emphasis on faithfully reproducing the original artwork.
Crafted from natural linden wood, with a blue background and a flat surface. Dimensions: 30 x 40 cm.
According to tradition, a virtuous widow cast the icon into the sea to save it from the iconoclasts. The icon sailed upright toward Mount Athos, where Saint Gabriel walked across the sea and received it.
