Abstract- The aim of study is identification, determination, and assessment of the painting materials of Coptic icon, presage of angel Gabriel to the priest Zechariah. Different analytical techniques were applied for characterization of the icon materials. The results revealed that the rigid support was Tamarix hardwood, the flexible support was linen fibers, the ground materials was gypsum. The pigments were vermilion, kermes carmine red and ultramarine blue, the binder was egg yolk, and the varnish was mastic resin. The chemical analyses showed the stability of icon materials with surrounding environment, in addition to the impact of metal salts result in decreasing of the free amino acids of egg yolk binder and cracking the paint film
