Russian icon is not just an image for prayer, visibly telling about the essence of the Orthodox faith, but also a valuable artistic image, a special kind of fine art and an integral part of the cultural national treasure of Russia. The book will introduce you to the history of the development of Russian iconography, tell you about the main subjects and types of icons, about iconographic types of the Savior, the Mother of God and the most revered saints, how icons depict the events of Holy Week and Christian holidays, the Church Fathers and prophets, angels and apostles, healers, miracle-workers and martyr soldiers... You will also learn about the most famous icon-painting traditions of the Russian land, embodied in the Tver, Novgorod, Pskov, Moscow icon-painting schools, and of course about the famous icons created by both the masters whose names have not reached us and the famous icon-painters Theophanes the Greek, Andrei Rublev, Dionisius, Simon Ushakov, Prokopiy Chirin. For a wide range of readers.
