Orthodox Icon of Prophet Elijah’s Fiery Ascent to Heaven

🕊️ A Testament of Faith and Divine Power

This handcrafted Orthodox icon depicts the dramatic Fiery Ascent of the Prophet Elijah, taken directly from the Old Testament (2 Kings 2:11–13). Elijah is shown rising into heaven on a chariot of fire, drawn by fiery horses, while his disciple Elisha kneels below, receiving the prophet’s mantle — a transfer of spiritual authority.

Based on a 19th-century Russian original, this icon captures the mystery and beauty of this miracle with vivid, reverent detail. A deeply symbolic piece, it serves as a visual bridge between the Old and New Testaments, echoing Christ’s Ascension and divine victory over death.

🖼 Product Features

Each icon in our workshop is made to last a lifetime and beyond. The image is printed with rich, fade-resistant pigment inks on a premium solid-core wood panel — then hand-finished with a natural beeswax coating that deepens the colors, protects the surface, and gives each piece the warm, reverent quality of a traditionally crafted sacred object. A metal hanging hook is included on the back, so your icon is ready to display the moment it arrives.
