Russian icons are truly unique pieces of art. Even the very act of
painting Russian icons is already considered a form of worshipping God. Deeply
revered by Eastern Orthodox Church members, these holy images of religious
scenes and figures have been an integral part of Russian people’s life since
their first appearance in 988. In the Orthodox Church, the icon is meant to
serve as a window into the world of the sacred.
