Christ on the throne lifting up His right hand fingers to elucidate ‘The creed of Trinity’ . On the sides of the throne St.John the Baptist and St Zechariah the priest. On the right side St. Matthew and St.Mark. On the left side St. Luke and St. John. On the edges of the icon pope Peter the last martyr and pontiff and pope Discorus the champion of the orthodoxy. – from “The Red Monastery”
