The book explores the subject of Russian icons and their changes as
well as the discussion on art that unfolded in Russia in the 15th
and 16th centuries. Taking the representation of the Old Testament
Trinity, attributed to Andrei Rublev, as its point of departure, it
discusses and analyses the key issues of the iconography of the
Holy Trinity and the process of the emergence and the dissemination
of the imagery of God the Father and the New Testament Trinity in
Russia. These issues are framed in the context of the debate that
took place at the time within the Muscovite Orthodoxy, which
concerned heresy, the relations with other denominations, the
identity of the Russian Orthodox Church and the place of the icons
in the existing canon.
