This icon of Christ In Glory is based off the mural icon of the same found in the Cathedral of The Resurrection of Christ in Moscow. The icon depicts Christ enthroned surrounded by seraphims. The icon originates from the Holy Scriptures from 1 Enoch, Daniel 7 and the Apocalypse written by St John. This version of Christ in Glory has a completely gilded sculpted Christ with a handwritten background including actual gold painted Seraphim. This 12 x 16 icon of Christ In Glory in maple is the perfect size to have on your icon wall or on an icon stand! Note on wood products - All wood warps, that is something you have to remember with these icons. Warping over time will occur but it wont affect the icon. We use Feed-N-Wax for all of our icons which is our wood sealant and we recommend touching up the icons with this product as needed. If you get water spots from having the icon blessed the easiest way to get rid of them is to apply the Feed-N-Wax product mentioned above to the areas with the water spots and they should go away. All of our gilding is done with 24k gold and sealed with shellac. Note that the icon you will receive will vary slightly from picture shown. All of our icons are made to order, sculpted by Lydia Riley and made in Montana.
