Image of God the Father in Orthodox Theology and Iconography

by Steven Bigham

Fr Steven has given us a unique set of essays for edification, discussion and even comment and disagreement. His exposition on "God the Father" returns us to the roots of Orthodox iconography from which practitioners have strayed so completely, especially in recent centuries. Today, there is a tremendous interest in authentic iconography engendered by greater freedom to travel in such countries as Russia where eighteenth and century icons of "God the Father" abound. Travelers see these icons and come back with many questions which Fr Steven's study answers.
