EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of goldsmith Georgakis in his masterpiece, "Saint George". Created in 1800, this silver icon was dedicated to the church of St Nicolas in Caesarea, as indicated by the Greek and Karamanli inscription. The vibrant red background adds a sense of speed and motion to the artwork, while also symbolizing Saint George's association with Christianity. The intricate carving on the silver surface reflects an ornate level of detail that is truly awe-inspiring. Mounted on horseback, Saint George exudes grace and strength as he prepares to confront a fearsome dragon. This vertical composition captures the essence of this iconic scene from history. Georgakis' artistry brings forth a male likeness that embodies courage and determination. The depiction of Saint George on horseback riding into battle signifies his role as a protector against evil forces. With its rich golden accents contrasting against the silver backdrop, this studio shot emphasizes both artistic mastery and historical significance. As we admire this remarkable piece, it transports us back to Caesarea during ancient times when faith played an integral part in people's lives. Though absent any human presence within the frame, this photograph allows us to appreciate Georgakis' talent without any distractions or commercial use intentions. It serves as a testament to his skillful craftsmanship and enduring legacy within religious art history.
