Society and church: Exhibition of icons, created for the restored Theodore Cathedral, in Saint-Petersburg

July 10, 2012 at the Rumyantsev Mansion in Saint-Petersburg opened an exhibition of icons “The revival of the Church”, dedicated to the restoration of the Our Lady of St. Theodor Cathedral. Its construction was timed to the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty (1913); people call the Cathedral the “Romanov Church”.

The exhibition features 22 icons, which are made by iconographers of the icon-painting workshop of St. John the Apostle. 

After the end of the exhibition icons, presented at the exposition, will take their place in the iconostasis of the St. Theodore Cathedral.
