A short segment of a documentary on the making of Greek, Byzantine style, silver icons. Originally made as a student film, this documentary explored the role of the icon within the Greek Orthodox culture and how the artistic know-how required for making such items is passed down from generation to generation.
Great i wish there were teachers here in Australia that good to show us how to do that. I have just started to do Icons in Egg Tempra on boards i make my own boards . I have found it very hard to find any teachers here and if they teach they charge the earth... My family was also from Cyprus haaaa great love your work.... Nina from Melbourne Australia...
