Christ Pantocrator - Hagia Sophia's Deësis mosaic, Sultanahmet, Istanbul, Turkey, 1963 - Giclée Fine Art Print
Here at Trevor and Vincent, we love old religious relics like this one!
Hagia Sophia's Deësis mosaic is a stunning piece of 13th-century art depicting Christ with the traditional halo and pensive expression. Even though some of the color has worn, you can still see how they take advantage of the texture to produce an almost three-dimensional effect. If you like history, the backstory of how this was saved is almost a forgotten memory—you should look it up!
You don't have to be religious to purchase this piece. You can simply love what it represents to you, whether that be your faith, your gratitude, your hope, or love. This comes as a fine art piece, canvas, journal, and more!
