From the
early
centuries,
images of holy people of the Christian faith have been depicted in a
unique
way through iconography. Icons are not intended to be
portraits or realistic images. Rather, they
symbolically and stylistically represent holy persons, who in death
have been transfigured and are seen as in the spiritual state.
Traditionally, icons are said to be
written... because they tell in color and image what Scripture tells in
text.
