Are you looking for a printed or a hand woven tapestry?

Anna- Matushka Galina Tregubov does embroidered icons, which can be seen on her husband's very fine iconography site: www.iconmotif.com [ iconmotif.com]

Look around online, particular on E-Bay, for Turkish woven icons. They usually aren't expensive.

I had thought of it when Anna first posted her query and then forgot to reply to the thread. Both Father and Matushka (and, most recently, their daughter, as I recollect) have done some beautiful and most reverent pieces. Many years, Neil

Dave,
Are those Turkish pieces the fruit of Syrian Orthodox iconographers?

I believe they are the fruit of non-Christian Turkish industrial looms.
