Description
A wonderful lithography with a varnish layer & high quality gold paint depicting The Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ. An icon aesthetically upgraded with collective value due to the handmade artificial ageing it has undergone. This is an exact copy of a Byzantine hagiography. The Bible Story of the Ascension of Jesus, found in the first chapter of Acts, describes the ascent of Christ from the Earth to the Heavenly realm. According to Acts, the ascension of Jesus takes place 40 days after the resurrection in the presence of his disciples. Christ is risen up after advising them to stay in Jerusalem until the arrival of the Holy Spirit. As he raises, a cloud obscures him from their view, & two men in white arrive to tell them that he will return "in the same way you have seen him go into heaven." in Christian doctrine, the ascension is correlated with the deification of Jesus, meaning that through his ascension, Jesus took his seat at the right hand of God: "He ascended into heaven, & is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty." Can be hung on a wall or placed on a flat surface. The item is sold without the stand depicted.
