ICONOGRAPHY VIDEO
"The rich artistic path we can boast a wide variety of murals in Christian churches around the world and many portable Byzantine icons for public and private spaces. With love and patience Byzantine create original works that stand out for their design excellence, the chromatic harmony, expressiveness and deeply religious character.
Following the rules of Byzantine art, studying the scriptures and analyzing the visual needs of each space, we elaborate architectural design to ensure the harmony of the performances will be painted and point out the temple. The dome frescoes and other surfaces are specially treated to ensure the strength of the project. With quality and longevity is the choice of materials to be used in painting the temples, which is executed in tranches at agreed periods.
We equally cater to our portable icons. Each icon is unique. We start each project fresh and base it on carefully selected models of the Byzantine tradition, interpreted through our own personal outlook, in order to make it a living work of art that serves it purpose to the fullest and depicts the spiritual world and the celestial glory.
Optimistic, bright colors are used in an appropriate manner, in order not to stray from the solemn spirit of traditional images, intended to serve the humble, praying sentiments of the believers. The materials used are of equally high standards to those used in murals. The wood has undergone a special treatment, secrets of which lie within the teachings of the great art creators of past centuries. The colors are guaranteed to retain their stability for at least 100 years and the background is adorned with real gold leaves of 14 carats."
