Artwork Description

Virgin

0.0 x 0.0

The creation of icons has been considered a sacred profession throughout history; however the subject the artist depicts, although prescriptive in nature, force the artist to focus on his skill and the essence of his painting, as well as on the religious subject-matter. To portray a Byzantine work effectively, and to understand and convey the emotion and sacred meaning inherent in each subject, requires a combination of theological understanding, research and creative imagination, as well as consummate artistic skill
