Antique Eastern Orthodox Icon of God the Father
Located in Victoria, BC
Here is a beautiful Eastern Orthodox icon, circa 19th century likely from Southeastern Poland. This piece depicts God the Father, symbolized by the triangular halo representing the Holy Trinity. Painted with meticulous detail, it features traditional Orthodox symbolism: the sphere of creation held in His hand and the Holy Spirit represented as a dove below.
The inscription on the top corners is that of Church Slavonic, a liturgical language used in Eastern Orthodox Christian art, particularly in Slavic countries which translates to “God the Father”.
Symbolism in the Icon:
The Sphere in Hand: Represents the Earth or the cosmos, symbolizing divine creation and sovereignty.
The Dove: Represents the Holy Spirit, a frequent symbol in Eastern Orthodox Christian art.
Blessing Gesture: The raised hand with two fingers extended is a traditional Orthodox gesture of blessing.
The icon’s well-preserved patina reflects its age and devotional use. This piece embodies the intersection of faith, artistry, and Polish...
