| Christian Orthodox Icons from Angelus Workshop Christian icons, religious paintings and ikons - both new styles and copies of traditional old icon artworks - iconography and fine art pictures. Icons (Ikons) have formed an aspect of worship in the Christian tradition from earliest times, with the first mention of the use of an icon appearing in the apocryphal Acts of John. Early Christian iconographers developed their images by including elements from Greek, Roman and Egyptian art. In iconography, the robed figure of the bearded philosopher, with fingers raised in a teaching gesture, and clasping a book, was familiar throughout the ancient world, and it is not surprising that this respected and venerated image should become equated with that of Christ. We make Christian icons and religious paintings in many styles, including traditional , Macedonian, Russian, Greek and Catholic icons; naive folk icons in the Czechoslovak and Coptic styles, as well as religious paintings in the classical and renaissance traditions. Subjects include: Jesus Christ The Virgin Eleousa Hodegetria Madonna and Child Blessed Virgin Mary Deposition Mandylion Holy Face Vernicle Deesis Annunciation Man of Sorrows Crucifixion Descent from the Cross Mother of God Queen of Heaven Angels Saints
