Our New Iconography - May 2011 - 05/11/11

It is a joy to show you the blossoming of the incredible icons--"images" of the Lord and many of the Saints - that have come to cover the ceiling, walls, and altar of All Saints Church since the fire.
 
Although they are all new, the icon's style reflects the more ancient Orthodox approach to iconography. Rather than an exacting realism, they convey the Divine, peaceful, radiant qualities the Saints have attained, and to which we aspire. From Heaven, where there is "no darkness nor shadow of turning", the Saints draw us into the Lord's embrace.
 
Our icons were painted almost entirely by one iconographer, Ivan Roumiantsev of Moscow, Russia. Visit Ivan's web site here.
