The guardian angel and the holy person are different personalities. But they are similarly involved in the life of a person living on earth. An Orthodox Christian has at least two closest invisible patrons.
During baptism, for every Orthodox Christian, God gives a guardian angel - an invisible protector, mentor and helper in good deeds. He takes an active part in our life: he hears our prayer to him and invisibly helps us, guides us to everything good and useful for our salvation, protects us from the attempts of evil spirits to influence us, prays to God for us. The guardian angel accompanies a Christian from baptism not only to death, but also to the afterlife. And at the Last Judgment, the guardian angel will intercede before Christ for the forgiveness of a person and, in the case of forgiveness, will be his inseparable friend in eternity.
A guardian angel is a good spirit that has never lived an earthly human life. That is why there is no day on which the memory of the guardian angel is celebrated in the church calendar. We can honor him every day and turn to him in prayer.

The so-called Zvenigorod rank is one of the finest iconic ensembles of ancient Russian painting. The chin consists of three half-length icons - the Savior, the Archangel Michael and the Apostle Paul. The rank could enter the iconostasis of both the prince's Assumption and the neighboring Nativity Cathedral of the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, whose tutor was the Zvenigorod prince. The painting of the Zvenigorod rank is distinguished by special purity of color, nobleness of tonal transitions, luminous color. Light emanate from golden backgrounds and gentle melting of light faces, pure shades of ocher, blue, pink, green tones of clothes. The icons originate from the Moscow region of Zvenigorod, once they were part of the seven-figure Deesis. The surviving three icons were discovered by the restorer Chirikov in 1918 in a wood shed near the Assumption Cathedral on Gorodok during a survey by an expedition of the Central State Restoration Workshops of the ancient princely temple of Yuri Zvenigorodsky, the second son of Dmitry Donskoy.

Icon boards are made of alder with a cut-in, wedge-shaped cut-off dowel, planted in the dovetail groove, covered with stain, oil and tinted. On all print icons. A certificate is attached to each icon.
Boards with dovetail dowels, linen canvas "pavolok", soil "levkas", high-tech printing with pigment inks directly on gesso. These cracks and sprinkling of gesso create a complete sense of antiquity. The icon is almost impossible to distinguish from the old original. In the same way you can make crosses, arched icons, folding. You can choose the images of the icons in the catalog (I will add in the near future) or order any others. You can also send us your image file or just write which icon you need.
