The creation of icons is a special type of art, since the icon is both a work of art and the image for prayer, visually telling about the essence of the Christian faith, opening the “window” into another, higher world.
On the pages of this book, you will learn about the most revered Christian saints, about the exploits and miracles that they committed by them and the icons dedicated to them, get acquainted with the special artistic language of icon painting: the symbols of color, a special construction of space and other canons (rules) of writing icons.
For a wide range of readers.
For secondary school age.
