The Mystical Beauty of Iconology

Forgive the lack of posts last month. I have been out of town a lot this summer.

One such vacation was spent for a week at an iconography retreat up north conducted by the Prosopon School of Iconology. I have been awestruck by the profound depth of meaning put into these images. I feel compelled to look into the obvious and exciting connections between inconology and the Theology of the Body.

As I discover and enrich my own understanding of this breathtaking art I will share my observations with you.

For now, here is the image of my finished icon from the retreat.
