The gold leaf background symbolizes the uncreated light of God’s Kingdom, drawing the viewer beyond earthly time and into the eternal victory of Christ over death.
The Meaning of the Transfiguration Icon
On Mount Tabor, Christ reveals His divine glory.
Light radiates from Him — not created light, but divine presence. The apostles fall in awe, overwhelmed by holiness.
Moses and Elijah stand beside Him, representing the Law and the Prophets fulfilled.
This icon reveals both who Christ truly is and what humanity is called to become.
Materials & craftsmanship
Handcrafted in Greece on a solid wood panel, reproduced with museum-quality Byzantine seriography and finished with genuine 18kt gold leaf.

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.
