Works explicitly created or identified as an icon or another devotional object in the Eastern Christian tradition, rather than a Western narrative painting of the same subject. Includes the Icon of the Three Hierarchs, the Kykkos Icon of the Virgin Mary, the Icon of Christ and Abbot Mena, Andrei Rublev's Trinity icon, and the illuminated Gospel manuscripts the Garima Gospels and the Nestorian Evangelion, devotional books produced and venerated in the same Eastern and Oriental Christian traditions as the icons themselves.
