Introducing the

BYZANTINE ICON TAPESTRY COLLECTION  

THE MIRACLE OF ST GEORGE - $949.00

(The Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia)

Dimensions: 36" x 50"; Rod pocket.


Centuries old art work is being converted with modern technology into these symbolic and artful wall hangngs. We present three newly created Byzantine Icon Tapestries. A series of thirteen woven wall hangings is planned. They will be based on icons revered by Orthodox Christians around the world.

The Raison D'Etre for the creation of the Icon Tapestries: They are an expression of a life long dream to combine the Classical Palette of Art and the Orthodox Faith, interweaving God’s creation of Earthly splendor and all living creatures large and small.

The selection of a series of thirteen famous Icon images gives the Faithful a new dimension for comparing egg tempera-based icons on wood or painted frescoes versus a woven media.

The tapestries are the result of cooperation between Studio St. George, Inc. and Icon Tapestries USA, LLC. They are finely woven of 100% cotton yarns on Jacquard looms.
