Hand painted icon of Saint Andrew the First Called.

Saint Andrew is a Christian preacher, the first among the 12 apostles, personally called by Jesus Christ.

He is the brother of Saint Peter and, like him, he is a fisherman by profession. He is supposed to have been a disciple of John the Baptist before he became a Christian.

According to the distribution of the world (oikumene), which the apostles made among themselves, regarding the places where they would preach, Andrew was assigned the vicinity of the Black Sea, including - Asia Minor, Georgia and Scythia. Accordingly, he developed considerable missionary activity in lands that later fell into the modern states of Ukraine, Romania and Russia (and is therefore presented as the first preacher of Christianity to visit the Varangians and Slavs), Bulgaria (in the lands that now represent the Bulgarian Black Sea coast , and in Antiquity scattered with Greek colonies) and Turkey (in that part of it, which before the foundation of the Ottoman Empire represented the Asia Minor possessions of Byzantium). Therefore, he is considered the founder of the Russian Orthodox Church and is presented as the first Patriarch of Constantinople (presumed founder of the church in Byzantium and first bishop of the city).

Mooi icoon en goed verpakt; enkel jammer dat er aan de achterzijde niets was om m op te hangen. Maar dat was wel snel verholpen; hij hangt al! Een schitterende aanwinst, waar ik erg blij mee ben!

I'm glad you were satisfied and you like the icon Martien!

Beste bedankt voor die goede verpakking en mag ik vragen waarom de goudkleur op de laatste iconen zo mat is tegenover de vorige iconen die ik bij je aankocht ? Gr Pablo

Hallo! Bedankt voor de vriendelijke woorden en feedback. Ik probeer altijd elke zending zeer goed te verpakken. Wat betreft de kleur: elke keer blijkt het anders, wat normaal is als het om handgemaakt gaat. Elke keer is het resultaat anders. Met respect!

It makes me happy to receive such a beautiful icon - and again, what an impeccable service!
