The Meaning of the Annunciation Icon

The Annunciation, celebrated on March 25 in the Church calendar, is one of the Twelve Great Feasts. It recalls the Archangel Gabriel’s announcement to the Virgin Mary that she would bear Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

The Gospel of Luke records Mary’s willing response to God’s word. Through the Holy Spirit, the eternal Son takes flesh from her and becomes truly human while remaining truly God. The Church honors her as Theotokos, the Mother of God, because the One she bears is God incarnate.

The Annunciation icon invites wonder at God’s saving love and a willing response to His call.

Handcrafted in Greece on a solid wood panel, reproduced with museum-quality Byzantine seriography and finished with genuine 18kt gold leaf.

Shipping & returns

Ships from Boynton Beach, Florida. If anything is not right, you have 30 days from delivery to request a return (unused, in its original packaging), and we send you the return label.

Caring for your icon

Keep your icon out of direct sunlight and away from damp walls and heat. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth, and never use water or cleaning products on the gold leaf. If you keep a vigil lamp or candles nearby, leave space so soot does not settle on the icon.

Having your icon blessed

Many Orthodox Christians bring a new icon to their parish priest to be blessed before placing it in the home. Just bring it with you to church and ask Father after the service.
