Bring the timeless beauty of the revered Mother of God “Iviron” icon into your home with this sacred artwork printed on a natural wooden plaque. Also known as the Panagia Portaitissa or Iverskaya Theotokos, this beloved Eastern icon has been venerated for centuries at the Georgian Iviron Monastery on Mount Athos, Greece. Depicting the Virgin Mary tenderly holding the Christ Child, the icon radiates protection, mercy, and spiritual peace.
Printed directly onto FSC-certified birch wood, the warm natural grain enhances the rich reds, golds, and deep tones of the traditional iconography, giving each piece a unique rustic character. The matte finish and edge-to-edge printing create a seamless sacred art display ideal for prayer corners, churches, or Christian home décor.
Crafted with sustainably sourced wood and available in 10mm or 20mm thickness, this wooden plaque combines traditional devotion with modern craftsmanship. A hanging kit is included, making it ready to display as meaningful spiritual wall art or a thoughtful gift for Christians and lovers of Byzantine iconography.
The Bleeding Wound: During the 9th-century Iconoclasm, an attacker stabbed the face of the icon, and blood immediately flowed from the wound, a miracle that inspired the widow holding the icon to save it by placing it in the sea.
