The Milesevа Angel is one of the most famous icons of Serbian medieval art, considered an icon of God’s wisdom. This icon originates from the Milesevo Monastery, founded in the 13th century, and depicts an angel with remarkable beauty and delicacy. It is characterized by its vivid color palette and style, reflecting the influences of Byzantine art. The Archangel Gabriel is shown at the empty tomb of the Lord, pointing to the women myrrh-bearers, indicating the direction in which the Risen Christ went.
A triptych is a work of art composed of three connected parts, most often painted or carved, which together form a single whole. In Christian art, especially in the Middle Ages, the triptych was used as an altarpiece or part of an iconostasis.
The central part is usually the largest and depicts the main scene—most often Jesus Christ, the Holy Theotokos (Mother of God), or saints of our Church.
The side panels are foldable and typically feature saints, angels, or the Lord and the Theotokos.
It is practical for transport, which made it popular in the Middle Ages among traveling believers and priests.
Our triptych is made from the finest pieces of ash wood, using icon-painting craftsmanship inspired by Byzantine and medieval originals.
It is produced by metal casting and careful hand-finishing, enriched with 24-karat gold and 925 silver.
It is painted with epoxy resins and decorated with zircons.
If you wish to give your triptych as a gift, you can also choose a ceremonial gift box.
The dimensions of the triptych are: 220x255x32 mm.
