Eastern Orthodox icon of Jesus Christ as the True Vine,16th century Byzantine icon in the Byzantine Museum of Athens.

Christ the True Vine,16th century Greek Byzantine icon in the Byzantine Mueum of Athens. Eastern Orthodox icon of Jesus Christ as the True Vine. Fascinating image. It owes nothing to perspective. It does convey the image of a teacher surrounded by scholars, not accepting blindly but clearly arguing and discussing. The book at the center conveys the importance of learning and the common and accessible text that they all share. The symbolism of the tree filled with knowledge that appears to be a home for all of them is also very powerful. 10x13x2 cm 3.9x5.1x0.8 inches FREE SHIPPING
