Translation of the Relics of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker from Myra of Lycia to Bari

The icon “Translation of the Relics of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker from Myra of Lycia to Bari” (after an original 19th-century icon) depicts one of the most significant events in the history of Saint Nicholas’s veneration. In 1087, his holy relics were taken from Myra in Lycia and transferred to the city of Bari to protect them from destruction. This event marked the beginning of the worldwide veneration of Saint Nicholas, and Bari became one of the most important pilgrimage centers for both Orthodox and Catholic Christians.

The icon traditionally portrays the solemn moment of the relics’ translation: clergy, sailors, and faithful believers accompany the sacred shrine with deep reverence. The serene and compassionate face of Saint Nicholas reflects his role as the protector of travelers, defender of the weak, and a swift helper in times of need.

The 19th-century original that inspired this reproduction is distinguished by expressive detail, refined composition, and a harmonious blend of late Russian iconographic tradition with subtle artistic influences of its era. This icon is not only a spiritual treasure but also a remarkable piece of sacred art—suitable for a home icon corner, chapel, or as a meaningful gift to anyone who venerates Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker.

🖼 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.
