<p>[QUOTE="Mat, post: 70787, member: 369"]Hi, I think it will be difficult to find an exact original for your icon, it is, as moreotherstuff said, just an icon in Byzantine - Greek Orthodox style. The silver cover is a pressed sheet of silver that is glued on th surface. The term " worked on canvas" means that it is actually a print, not an original painting. This kind of icons can be found in silver and tourist shops in Greece, and they are not worth a lot.</p><p>Mat[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
