Greek Orthodox Icons


Byzantine Icons by Father Pefkis
Page | 1 | 2 |

The magnifience of Orthodox iconography, as it was formed during the over a thousand year old Byzantine cultural tradition, lies in that it manages, trough profound intellectuality, which the dematerialized, to make the ascetic figures that it narrates breathe and lead to a trancedent way of worship which guides to another approach and an appreciation of the essence of life and things, more human, more realistic, truly free, it familiarizes man with his God and Creator.


Each of our Byzantine icons is not just a simple copy of the best possible authenticity of an original but a deposition of the soul, a work of the highest artistic quality with an autonomous value, processed with longing, zeal and above all faith in its holiness. This is evident in the most distinct way from the samples of our work, which is presented in in this page, that has distinguished us at a mational, as well as at an international level, because of its excellent quality, which, for this reason, marks every piece of work.
