The Baptism of our Lord Jesus Christ
The celebration of Epiphany since the 2nd century constitutes one of the most important celebrations of our Church. The baptism of Christ sanctified the water that became the sanctifying water symbol of reconciliation of man with God. By the grace of baptism, man is being received in the kingdom of heaven.
The Baptism is one the icons that compose the Twelve Feasts (the twelve most significant celebrations of Orthodoxy).
The particular icon of the Baptism is an embossed rendering of the Baptized Jesus Christ, as depicted in the icon of Baptism which adorns the Nave of the Holy Monastery of Stavronikita at Mount Athos and belongs to the Cretan school, signed by Theophanis the Cretan. At the top of the icon, a semicircle symbolizes the opening of heaven to let the Holy Spirit descend as a dove on Christ’s Head. The river Jordan is shown to have strong motion amid high rocks to symbolize the Red Sea, with fish swimming and a half dressed woman riding on a dragon. Christ is depicted in the river, almost naked, wearing only a white cloth around his waist, showing strong lines in his chest, shoulders and abdomen. At one bank of the river, Prodromos is depicted to have one hand on Christ’s head and the other in prayer while there are four angels at the other bank, the three of them worship Christ and the fourth one prays gazing at the sky.

Orthodox Icons Basics
Orthodox icons are sacred images used in Eastern Orthodox Christian prayer and worship. They follow the tradition of Byzantine iconography and are intended to support prayerful devotion in the home or church.
“Byzantine icons” usually refers to the artistic tradition and visual style that shaped Orthodox iconography. The term “Orthodox icons” places greater emphasis on their spiritual and devotional purpose. The two terms are therefore often used interchangeably.
A common starting point is an icon of Jesus Christ and an icon of the Virgin Mary , together with an icon of your patron saint .
Yes. In the Orthodox tradition, an icon may be blessed by an Orthodox priest. Many customers choose to have their icon blessed after receiving it.
