This finely crafted hand-painted icon honors Saint Sarah, a holy and faithful woman remembered for her righteousness and role in the unfolding story of salvation. Painted in the traditional Byzantine style with egg tempera and illuminated with genuine 22K gold leaf, the icon is mounted on asymmetrically hand-carved natural wood—symbolizing her grace, endurance, and trust in God's promise.
Saint Sarah, the wife of the Patriarch Abraham and matriarch of the people of Israel, is venerated for her deep faith and obedience to God's will. Though barren for many years, she received the divine blessing of motherhood in old age, becoming a living testament to the power of God's providence.
