St Joseph with the Christ child

Sankt Niklaus von Flüe

Tomb of St. Stephen the Great, Prince of Moldavia, cousin of Vlad the Impaler

Wow. I can really see the family resemblance.

> inb4 "muh divine simplicity" cannot fathom 1 Jn. 4:12 and Jn 1:18 being compatible

did you just write that the father is the essence?

Difference between divine simplicity and absolute divine simplicity bruh

Divine simplicity is not a concept that accepts gradation. It's a very simple concept.

The entire upper part, with the graph, is labelled as "essence"

10 year difference

Ay!

Now the painted version with gold leaf

Orrrrrr I'll just frame it lol

looks like a gnostic emanation graph but drawn with emojis

Except it's all Christian symbols and colors that have been traditionally used in icons...

I see no human persons in this alleged icon.

A bunch of disks, a book, a water drop, gadolig sagraments, and muh keys

When God made Adam out of the clay, he didn't make him into an emoji

Neither did Christ incarnate as an emoji

Icons aren't nominalist representations, they're symbolic since they're pointing to divine reality, and the likeness of humanity is important in icons because man was made in God's image

I wouldn't call this painting an icon though

The green text was a meme

Alright then

It does use symbols and colors that are traditionally found in icons though

Also people are super hard to draw

And paint
