Icoon - Sint Antonius - Hout
Greek Orthodox Icon, Saint Antonius,
around 1850, tempera on wooden board, size 32 x 23.
He was born in Egypt in the village of Coma, near the desert of the Thebaid, in the year 251. When St Anthony was about twenty years old, he lost his parents, but he was responsible for the care of his younger sister. Going to church about six months later, he heard the Gospel passage where Christ speaks to the rich young man: If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come follow Me (Mt.19:21). Anthony felt that these words applied to him. Therefore, he sold the property that he received after the death of his parents, then distributed the money to the poor, and left his sister in the care of pious virgins in a convent.
Provenance: private collection Germany. Authenticity of every icon is guaranteed. Every icon is sold with extensive written expertise.
