Ceremonial silver icon "The Lord Almighty"

The image of Christ the Almighty is the most important in the iconography of Christ. It is found in the "shoulder" (up to the beginning of the chest, up to the shoulders) and waist composition. But the most solemn image of the Savior Almighty is the Savior on the throne, where Christ is depicted in full height. This is one of the oldest subtypes of the iconography of the Savior Almighty. The throne is a symbol of the power of God, a reflection of the Old Testament appearances of the Lord of Hosts to the prophets and the words of the Gospel that the Lord will judge people from the throne. The name also reflects the composition of the icon: the Savior is depicted full-face, completely turned to the worshippers and sitting on a throne and a scarlet pillow, His feet on the foot of the throne.

With his right hand, Christ blesses people, with his left He holds an open Book. The meaning of the Book is also deeply symbolic and ambiguous: according to the interpretation of the Old Testament, it is the Book of the Covenant of God and man, the Book of Life with the names of those who will enter the Kingdom of God, the Good News of the Gospel, and the Apocalypse tells us that it is also the Book of Revelation, closed with seven seals, which no one can read except The Savior himself. The book is also a symbol of Jesus Christ Himself, because, according to the evangelist John the Theologian, He is the Word of God that came into the world.
