Description from the seller

Greek Orthodox Icon - Saints Constantine and Helen with the True Cross

A beautiful Greek Orthodox icon depicting Saint Constantine the Great and his mother, Saint Helen. The two figures are shown standing on either side of the True Cross, symbolizing their pivotal role in the establishment of Christianity and the discovery of the Holy Relics. Saint Helen is depicted holding the Holy Nails on a white cloth.
The icon is a high-quality chromolithograph mounted on a wood panel with a black-painted bevelled edge. The colors remain vibrant, and the iconography follows the traditional Byzantine style with western influences typical of the mid-20th century.
Greece, ca. 1960.
Dimensions: 26 x 20 x 1,2 cm.
Very good vintage condition. Minor wear consistent with age (please see photos for details). Ready to be hung.
Strong custom made packing, registered shipping.
