Book Description Paper Back. Condition: New. The theology of the icon included more than the basic theory of the transfiguration of beauty and the sanctification of art. It is a fundamental element in the entire body of Orthodox Tradition. The Theology of the Icon is the most comprehensive introduction available to the history and theology of the icon, and is the standard text upon which most modern studies of iconography are based, providing the reader with a deep and serious approach to the mystery of the sacred image. It surveys the development of the sacred art of the Christian East from its beginnings in catacomb art through the iconoclastic controversies of the eighth and ninth centuries. It includes an analysis of the flowering and development of early Russian iconography, tracing its later influences and the state of the art today. Drawing especially on the Russian Orthodox tradition, the author studies a large number of texts in great detail. The result is a book that will enable the reader to appreciate the Orthodox icon with an open heart. 528 pp. Seller Inventory # 49254
