Iconostasis

In the work Iconostasis 1922, Pavel Florensky offers a deep analysis of the iconographic tradition, combining in his thoughts both art criticism and theological optics. In the Iconostasis, the reader will find an examination of the church's dogmas and a brilliant analysis of the iconographic canon, comparisons between Orthodox iconography and Western religious painting, as well as reflections on the material side of creating an icon, along with many other topics that are in one way or another related to the painted and philosophical aspects of the Russian iconographic tradition.
