Description

This traditional image of The Old Testament Trinity, originally painted by Andrei Rublev in 1425, shows us the three visitors to Abraham and Sarah described in Genesis 18. Orthodox tradition identifies the three visitors with the three persons of the Trinity.

Wood-mounted icons are on 5/8″ ProWood® Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) with a wood-look foil finish, with tee-slots milled in the back for easy hanging. Icons are finished in classic cherry to replicate the traditional icon red, in keeping with Byzantine tradition. (Ancient icon board edges were frequently coated with red bole, a form of clay).
