Icons for St. Anthony's Dome, Part 12

We are drawing near to the end of this project. Today I took pictures that should enable you to compare similar drawings. First, some of the trimmings and decorations on the periphery of the main images.

Now it's time to move onto the faces of the four evangelists. They are NOT completed, nor were they labeled when I took the pictures. But if you are familiar with iconography for the Apostles, you may be able to tell who's who.

And here are two sets of hands, each holding a parchment which will be inscribed with the first verses from their Gospel.

Now we can go to the creatures that represent the evangelists.

And finally, the two versions of the Pantocrator icon of the Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages; Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten, not created, of one essence with the Father through Whom all things were made.

Painted on the inside of the dome, looking down; an image on the underside of a hemispheric ceiling.

Painted on a canvas fastened to the inside of the drum; a curved image (laterally) and flat (vertically).

Wow!
