It was believed that these works acted as intermediaries between worshippers and the holy personages they depicted. Their pictorial language is stylised and primarily symbolic, rather than literal and narrative. Indeed, every attitude, pose, and colour depicted in an icon has a precise meaning, and their painters—usually monks—followed prescribed models from iconographic manuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing over 400 colour images, \u003cem\u003eIcons and Saints of the Eastern Orthodox\u003c\/em\u003e catalogues the vast heritage of images according to iconographic type and subject, from the most ancient at the Monastery of Saint Catherine in the Sinai to those from Greece, Constantinople, and Russia.
