A book about art or a treatise on painting: Practical leadership. Chennini Ch.

This book does not set itself the goal of the theological meaning of the icon, nor the comparison of the Italian Trado icon with an Orthodox icon or fresco. It is completely subordinated, first of all, the purpose of familiarizing modern icon painters with the technical side of the process: as it was then - the preparation of colors, the foundations on which these colors are applied, etc. The goal is to show the technique of icon painting in a certain historical retro pass. It was precisely for this that a large source -study article by Yu. I. Greenberg was required, which should largely expand the idea of ​​our subject.
