Icon: Pentecost

The scene of the Pentecost is based on the Acts of the Apostles: 2,1-13 and the Gospels of Luke and John.

In this large icon of the Pentecost, the Mother of God is seated in a grandiose carved golden throne in a space decorated with columns, windows and a beautiful tiled floor. Her feet rest on a pedestal. She raises her hands with open palms. The twelve Apostles surround her.

The Holy Spirit appears above in the form of a white dove in red fireball. Red flames are seen on each head.

The dominant colors of this icon are striking blues and reds with golden accents.
