Sacred Heart of Jesus icon, painted in Romania 38x32 cm. Icon of the Sacred Heart hand painted on wood plank and canvas following the severe rules of Byzantine iconography by Romanian artists with tempera and gold leaf.
The Sacred Heart image is strictly related to His double nature, both human and divine, and celebrates especially the human half of the Saviour. Love for men is another main theme of this painting, represented by the crown of thorns around His heart, symbol of His sacrifice, burning for love for the human race. Another reference to the Crucifixion is the representation of the stigmata on His hands.
The image is surrounded by a wood frame painted in cold colours and carved to create floral patterns, angels and Saints.
Wood icon made in Romania, delivered with documents and certificates in an elegant blue velvet case.
