Pantokrator Christ on an extraordinary Icon!
In 1975, the small manufactory Creaciones Dangel established the company CREDAN, not forgetting the craftsmanship created by a carefully selected team of people. Since then, Credan products have been known and admired worldwide.
The quality of the raw materials used (including 24-karat gold), refined design, and incredible elegance have made the company's clients the most influential people from around the world.
The production process is time-consuming and meticulous to ensure an amazing appearance and craftsmanship, with raw materials meeting the highest quality standards—ranging from gold, silver, and copper to carefully selected wood.
We would like to present to you the exceptionally beautiful iconography of saints by Credan SA.
As Pantokrator Christ, he is depicted in a standing or seated position on a throne, with an open Holy Scripture in his left hand and an uplifted right hand in a blessing gesture. The finger arrangement refers to the Greek monogram Christ: IC XC. Two fingers are joined: the thumb and the ring finger. This makes the index and middle fingers resemble the letters IC. The crossed thumb and ring finger, combined with the little finger, form XC. This is not the only interpretation of the gesture; according to some theologians, the connected thumb and ring finger symbolize the duality of Christ's nature: divine and human. Meanwhile, the connection of three fingers—the little finger, ring finger, and thumb—symbolizes the Holy Trinity.
The book that Jesus holds in his left hand refers to his mission of teaching. It usually contains a quote from the Gospel of John: "Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment".
In the Byzantine tradition, the depiction of Christ as Pantokrator is most often placed on the ceiling of the central dome of the church. This tradition, dating back to the 11th-century Church, has symbolic significance. During the Macedonian Dynasty (867-1056), when iconoclasm ended, Byzantine church art was revived. Even then, Christian temples began to be built with the concept of creating an "image of the cosmos". The placement of the Pantokrator icon on the central dome was meant to show Christ, who looks down from above upon His world.
