An exact replica of the original icon, created using advanced imaging technology with particular emphasis on faithfully reproducing the artwork.
Made from natural lime wood, with a blue background and a flat surface, measuring 14 x 17 cm.
This is an exact replica of the icon of the Panagia Portaitissa at the Holy Monastery of Iviron on Mount Athos. A virtuous widow cast it into the sea to save it from the iconoclasts, and it sailed upright toward Mount Athos, where Saint Gabriel received it. The icon remains in the chapel to the left of the main gate, from which it takes its name, “Portaitissa.”
