SOLD Created by the hand of American iconographer Brother Simeon Davis, this original icon of Saint Andrew the Apostle (the First Called) exemplifies the radiant colors, fine detail, and fidelity to classical iconography that has made the Monastery Icons collection the most beloved Christian art over the past thirty-three years. This icon is one of a kind and will no longer be available once it is sold.

Brother Simeon created a classic Byzantine portrait of Saint Andrew modelled on the earliest traditions of iconography.

This icon is painted on 1/4-inch non-tempered artist's hardboard measuring 16" wide by 20" tall. The artist used classic egg tempera. The background is hand applied 23 kt gold leaf applied using the varnish gilt method. The icon has a protective artist's grade arcylic varnish. Created in the year 1984, the painting includes the artist's "signature" in tiny letters: "By the hand of Simeon 1984," as is traditional in iconography.

"Icons raise the soul and the mind to the realm of the spirit."

Photios Konotoglou, Greek iconographer
