Description
This icon is faithfully reproduced from a detail in a large 16th century fresco from Mt. Athos. It features a glorious angel titled "Angel of the Lord." He is dressed as a deacon in deep blue and gold festal robes, following Psalm 103’s description of angels as "ministering spirits." He holds a royal scepter and orb, representing the authority given to angels by Christ.
This beautiful Athonite icon could be properly venerated as one’s Guardian Angel. There are an untold number of angels, and among them are the Guardian Angels, which watch over the souls of baptized Christians.
The feast day of all the angelic hosts is November 8.

Wonderful icon
As a newcomer to the East, I am building up my army of icons, and I can’t thank you enough for this splendid icon. Not only that, but the great service from Legacy icons was phenomenal. I recently graduated and they sent me a beautiful card. God bless them and keep them!!

Great Gift
I bought this for my Godson, and his mum and dad may have already bought his first icon, but if not, I couldn't think of a better gift. His patron is uncommon so I was leaning toward Christ Blessing the Children, but I am so glad I went with the Angel of the Lord. The photograph just can't convey the *richness* of the colors. The icon is visually soothing as well as (hopefully) something that will remind my godson of his guardian angel every day as he grows older.
