Description
Acheiropoieta is Greek for ‘not made by (human) hand’ and such icons are said to have come into existence miraculously or are versions of a miraculously created original archetype.
During the early ministry of Jesus Christ, Abgar – ruler of the Syrian City of Edressa – was afflicted by leprosy. Christ the Saviour asked for water and a towel. He wiped his face with a towel, and on it was his divine image. Christ sent the towel to Abgar and, on receiving it, began to heal and was cured. The image is a representation by the miraculous event or can be seen as representation of the holy shroud.
There two types of prints:
Giclée prints are museum-level, high-quality prints. They are done on a canvas-style base using pigment based, archival quality inks on advanced inkjet printers. These pigments won’t fade when displayed so are much longer lasting. The resulting image is a much more lifelike reproduction of a textured painting.
Digital prints are produced using standard photography printers on high-density silk-finish paper.
All prints come unframed for the customer to display in a frame of their choosing.
Prints can come in three sizes:
A1 is 59.4 x 84.1 cm or 23.4 x 33.1 in
A2 is 42 x 59.4 cm or 16.5 x 23.4 in
A3 is 29.7 x 42 cm or 11.7 x 16.5 in
