Mount Athos weathered lithography (icon) of the Hospitality of Abraham in pine wood with carved decoration.
According to the book of Genesis (18.1), Abraham had set up his tent near Dry Mambris, where he was visited by three unknown men. Abraham and his wife Sarah warmly welcomed them and offered them a rich meal. During the discussion, the three men announced to the couple that they would have a child within a year, as they did. According to the Church Fathers, the icon of Abraham's Hospitality is an example of the Triune God in the Old Testament, which is why the three men appear as angelic figures.
