This reverent hand-painted icon depicts Saint Epiphanius of Salamis, the revered Bishop of Cyprus and one of the most learned and respected Fathers of the early Church. Painted in the timeless Byzantine tradition with egg tempera and adorned with authentic 22K gold leaf, the icon is set on a naturally hand-carved wood panel, giving each piece a unique sacred character.
Born in the Holy Land, Saint Epiphanius became known for his profound theological wisdom, defense of Orthodox doctrine, and personal holiness. As Archbishop of Salamis, he was a tireless guardian of the faith and a compassionate shepherd to his flock. He authored many important works, including the Panarion, a refutation of heresies, and is remembered as a pillar of orthodoxy.
