Greek icon hand painted St Joseph Child blessing 90x40 cm.
The religious icon is hand painted and depicts St. Joseph with Jesus in his arms. The man is dressed in red and blue, colors that refer to the earthly and divine part. St. Joseph and Jesus have a golden halo, but Jesus's halo has more designs that distinguish it from that of the saint to underline the difference between the holiness of St. Joseph and the divine part of Christ. St. Joseph is considered the perfect example of a life devoted to God. The saint decides to legally recognize Jesus as his son, even if not his, when an angel appears to him in a dream. The angel tells him the truth about his wife's pregnancy and the nature of the child who will be born and he decides to love the baby. On the back of the Orthodox Greek icon there is a certificate that guarantees the quality of the icon and the workmanship. This Greek icon is carefully made following the style and techniques conforming to those of the Macedonian School of Agion Oros. They use tools and techniques that have been used for centuries, to keep in line with the tradition and style of these icons. On the back there is also a hook that allows you to hang the icon on a wall.
