Orthodox icons of both theology and art. If the origin of retroactive icon,
It has both contact and differences between the early Christian art

Aesthetic sense of Christian symbols and symbolic first painting in the field of development. In early Christianity, and there is no sense that we are now icons. Moment of the beginning of the Christian underground tomb cave paintings ------ symbolic nature. Underground cave tomb early Jewish Christians modeled underground cave tomb built, Christians hiding in here to commemorate the martyrdom of those who held the liturgy and other activities.

Roman tomb underground cave art first Christian art, these murals are basically not what we are talking about icons (Christ, saints or biblical portrait of the history of the event), but a special symbol, they are used to express about the content of some idea of Christ and the Church, and the Old and New Testaments "Bible" Scripture and prayer book coincides godfather. Some of these symbols or themes from the "Bible" as the boat, fish, sheep, mouth rank olive branch dove, vines and other: some from polytheism, such as Orpheus.

Dekor and art

Second, icons, church, worship clothing and artifacts, these things ah religious activities as a tangible object, not shoddy ugly thing, but art works, but also has its own standard of beauty. Orthodox Synod Assembly called Dekor artist with a special painting techniques, painting techniques do not meet the requirements of the icons were forbidden to enter the church, not the painters did not allow in icon painting. In medieval Russia, the dominant religious art, some of the prominent icon painting masterpieces become the history of Russian art also always be part of such Andre. Trinity Rublev's famous image. Meanwhile, the Dekor Art on Modern Russian secular painting, especially religious paintings and portraits, also had a certain impact.

Again, the general understanding of icon painting art also has some enlightening. We say that the great works of art that anyone at any time can be created out of, but often from the artist's inspiration. What "inspiration" Inspiration is how is? We will admit, does not depend on artistic inspiration, but also some from the artist's talent. What is talent?But it includes some extraordinary thing, that is, some kind of mysterious supernatural origin. We usually call "inspiration and talent, where the icon painter, is the chanting of the Holy Spirit moved and driven. Icon painter is not their divine image creation, but show it. With special language icon painter said, drawing

But to show it, with a special language icon painter, the process is gradually drawing icon of icons reveal the image, so that the image already has appeared on the drawing board. Russian philosopher Filo Lenski said the priest; 'the artist is not from their own configuration sacred images, but only opened coverings already exist prior to the image of the world on that.

Not to smear paint on the drawing board, but seems to be cleansed of this image in vitro thin, clear spirit it records so that we can understand that art is not a single technique, but often with a complete view of the world is closely related to the experience.

Since the icon is not self-sufficient product icons from Italy, but belong to the Orthodox Church theology and worship activities, therefore, associated with this feature, the basic idea is not as an independent art form of icon art history book. This book is the basic content of this form of Orthodox icons in the history of a particular religious symbol occurrence theological meaning of terms, the performance of the method, the basic types and historical development in key national narrative
