Religious Icons - Meaningful Symbols for the Veneration of Saints

For centuries religious icons have been an important component for venerating Saints. Particularly in the Eastern Church, these special images are revered. Portrayals of Jesus Christ, Mary and other figures are also common in the Catholic Church. In LOGO's range you'll find images of religious icons made of wood and metal which can be put up at home or used for congregational work. The artistic portrayals orient themselves typically on the classic charm of early iconisation and are a traditional eye-catcher.

The Significance of Religious Icons in Christianity

The graceful portrayal of Holy Figures has a great significance in all the world's religions. In Christianity the artful production of images and figures of Saints as well as other Holy Figures has gained a particularly pronounced significance over the centuries. Private practitioners of the Faith have been increasingly collecting religious icons as Christian decorations and furnishings for some decades. These tend to be placed in prayer rooms and living spaces.

Even though religious icons such as Christian figures and sculptures are primarily connected with Orthodox Christianity and the Orthodox Church, many people all over the globe nonetheless enjoy collecting these decorative religious icons. Less frequently do these serve the purpose of active veneration or worship, but rather they captivate us as artistic portrayals of the Virgin Mary or other important Holy Figures in the Catholic Church. The various religious icons also invite us to discover more about the work and history of the Holy Figures.
