ST-SM-010
Icon with water-gilding on natural linden wood. The wood has been prepared in heat and gilded with gold leaf 24K, in accordance with traditional Byzantine techniques. The icon has been painted with egg-tempera paints for best performance and endurance of colors used. The colors were chosen based on studies and analyses of older icons by renowned iconographers, after ARTIS had first conducted conservation treatments on them.
Saint Iakovos Tsalikis was born on November 5th, 1920 AD in Livisi of Asia Minor. At the beginning of his monastic life, he took on obedience as his inviolable principle, and he never did anything without the blessing of his abbot. In addition, God honoured Saint Iakovos with the great gift of the priesthood. He lived in holiness for almost forty years at the Monastery of Saint David in Evia, having previously lived “according to the Gospel” in the world for thirty-two years. He devoted himself to the Lord, maintaining the same desire for asceticism from his youth until old age. Even the mere presence of the Saint, simply to look upon him, was a blessing from God, a revelation of the divine energies and the presence of God on earth. Worthy of his admirable life was his holy repose in the Lord, which he knew of ahead of time.
