The Deliverance of the Apostle Peter from Prison. Wooden orthodox icon.
Original icon: 19th century.
“And the chains fell from his hands. And the angel said to him, ‘Gird yourself and put on your sandals.’ And he did so.” This one of the most amazing episodes from the life of the Apostle Peter is described in the Acts of the Apostles. Imprisoned for preaching Christ, Peter was miraculously brought out of there by an angel. It was this moment that the icon painter captured.
The margins depict: Saint Metropolitan John and Saint Paraskeva
