What You're Getting
A Hand Painted Last Supper Icon from Greece
This icon is hand painted in Greece, following the Orthodox iconographic tradition in which the icon is not merely a picture but a sacred image written within centuries of theological and artistic canon. The Last Supper is depicted in the formal Byzantine style, with Christ at center and the twelve apostles arrayed at the table.
Real 24K Gold Sheets Applied to the Icon Surface
Gold sheets of 24K purity are applied directly to the icon surface as part of the finishing process. This is the technique used in traditional Greek and Byzantine iconography, where gold represents the divine light. The result is a piece that has a different material presence than a print or a reproduction.
Grade A Iconographic Work
The icon is graded Grade A, indicating the highest tier of craft in the studio's output. Greek icon painting has a continuous working tradition, and Grade A pieces are those where the painting quality, the gold work, and the overall finish meet the highest standard.

Using Your Last Supper Gold Icon
As a Wall Icon in a Home Prayer Space
A hand-painted icon belongs in a place of prayer or veneration. In an Orthodox or Catholic home, the Last Supper icon would naturally be placed in a prayer corner, above a dining table, or in a dedicated devotional space. The gold work makes it suitable for a formal setting.
As a Centerpiece for a Church or Sanctuary
The Last Supper is among the most significant scenes in Christian iconography and the most fitting image for a church interior. A Grade A hand-painted icon with real gold work is suitable for a sacristy, a chapel, or a side altar display.
As a Major Devotional Gift
A hand-painted icon with 24K gold sheets is a substantial gift for an ordination, a major anniversary, or any occasion calling for a work of sacred art. The Greece origin and Grade A quality give it a provenance appropriate to such an occasion. For more major gift pieces, browse our souvenirs collection.

Storage and Care
Displaying Your Last Supper Gold Icon
Display away from direct sunlight and sources of high humidity. The gold areas should not be touched directly with fingers, as skin oils can affect the finish.
Caring for Your Last Supper Gold Icon
Dust gently with a very soft dry brush or cloth, working around the gold areas carefully. If the icon develops a film of dust on the painted areas, a barely damp soft cloth can be applied with extreme care, followed immediately by a dry cloth. Never use cleaning products.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a lithography icon?
Lithography in this context refers to the technique used to produce the base image of the icon before the gold sheets and hand-finishing are applied. The base is produced at high resolution and the gold work and final painting are applied by hand on top. For more on icon techniques, browse our Christian gifts collection.
Is the gold real or decorative?
The gold sheets used on this icon are real 24K gold. This is not gold paint or gold-toned varnish. Real gold leaf and gold sheets have been used in Byzantine iconography for over a thousand years.
Does the icon come ready to hang?
Icons in this tradition are typically finished with a flat back suitable for shelf or wall display. For specific hanging hardware details, contact us before ordering.
Is this a mass-produced print or a hand-painted piece?
This is a hand-painted Grade A icon with real gold sheets applied. It is not a factory print. Each piece is the work of a skilled Greek icon painter working within the Orthodox tradition. For more hand-crafted Holy Land art, browse our souvenirs collection.
