A companion to An Iconographer's Patternbook: Stroganov Edition, this narrative patternbook is a translation of the book published by Uspensky in 1903 with traditional patterns of Saints and Feast Days and other instruction materials from ancient sources of the 17th century. An exciting addition to the collection of classic Greek and Salvic handbooks, the volume includes never-before-published information about appropriate quotes on Saints' scrolls, and canonical characteristics of the physical appearance of Christ and the Virgin Mary from early sources. Rules of iconography and related theology from early writers and councils are included along with editor's notes of explanation, dates of events, lives, etc. This book is a must for all interested in icons and theology.
