Abstract
Description
First of all, it should be mentioned that any Russian icon of the Ascension of Our Lord is a representation of the Church, not a historical picture. It shows Jesus Christ being taken up into Heaven on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. The Mother of God is depicted at the center of the lower part of the Russian icon of the Ascension. Russian icons are usually painted with bright colors, which only proves the fact that any of them is a joyous icon depicting a truly important for all Christian believers event
