A commanding Byzantine-style icon of Christ Pantocrator, painted in the traditional manner on timber panels with a luminous gold ground and an ornate medallion border. Designed as a devotional focal point or a dramatic statement artwork for interiors that want gravitas.

This panel centres on the timeless Pantocrator image - Christ rendered frontally, one hand raised in blessing, the other holding the Gospels. The palette is disciplined and rich: burnished gold, earth reds, deep greens, and warm flesh tones, all resolved with the calm geometry and quiet intensity that define iconography at its best.

Executed using historic techniques, the surface is built up in layers - a prepared gesso ground, hand-applied gilding , and fine brushwork in mineral and plant-derived pigments. The surrounding border features repeated roundels and scrolling motifs, framing the figure like a miniature architectural sanctuary. Subtle ageing and patina can be introduced to evoke the presence of an older relic, or the finish can be kept cleaner and more contemporary.

Ideal for feature walls, libraries, stair landings, sacred spaces, and collectors’ interiors. Available as a faithful facsimile of historic sources or as a bespoke commission in custom dimensions, colour emphasis, and framing style.
