St John The Forerunner - 4.5 x 6 (Maple)

The Glorious Prophet, Forerunner and Baptist John! Our Lord called St john the greatest man ever born, that's saying something. He was a Jewish prophet who preached the coming of our Lord and called all to repentance, baptizing in the Jordan River all those who in repentance were preparing for the Lord's arrival. St John also baptized Christ in the Jordan. He was martyred and beheaded by Heron. Often you'll see icons of St John holding his sacred head which is present in this icon you see here.

This 4.5 x 6 icon in maple of St John The Forerunner is the perfect medium size for your icon corner at your home or hanging in your office.

Note on wood products - All wood warps, that is something you have to remember with these icons. Warping over time will occur but it wont affect the icon. We use Feed-N-Wax for all of our icons which is our wood sealant and we recommend touching up the icons with this product as needed. If you get water spots from having the icon blessed the easiest way to get rid of them is to apply the Feed-N-Wax product mentioned above to the areas with the water spots and they should go away.

Note that the icon you will receive will vary slightly from picture shown. 

All of our icons are made to order, sculpted by Lydia Riley and made in Montana.
