What is a Greek Orthodox icon?

Greek Orthodox icons are icons that are symbolic representations of the Divine. Orthodox icons alter the perspective and form of the image, making it less lifelike. This is done so that we can see past worldly appearances and focus on the spiritual truth of the holy person or event.

Questions About Antique Greek Icons

What is a Greek Orthodox icon?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
Greek Orthodox icons are icons that are symbolic representations of the Divine. Orthodox icons alter the perspective and form of the image, making it less lifelike. This is done so that we can see past worldly appearances and focus on the spiritual truth of the holy person or event.
