This sacred icon depicts Saint Jason, one of the Seven Apostles and an early missionary companion of Saint Paul. Rendered in the timeless Byzantine tradition using egg tempera and authentic 22K gold leaf, the image is mounted on hand-carved wood with natural, asymmetrical lines, giving the piece a unique character of reverence and craftsmanship.
Saint Jason is best known for his evangelical work in Tarsus, Thessaloniki, and particularly in the Greek island of Corfu, where he endured suffering and imprisonment for proclaiming the Gospel. Alongside his fellow apostle Sosipater, he converted many to Christianity and is venerated as a fearless witness of Christ’s love and salvation.
