1. Contrasting iconography outside Moscow's new cathedral. 2. Museum of icons at the Holy Trinity Sergyev Monastery (February 2000). I said to the young priest pictured who had fluent English, "Where I come from many people would consider kissing an icon to be idolatrous. What do you say to that?" He replied, "It's the same as kissing a picture of your wife. It's not the paper you're kissing, but what lies beyond it." 3. Icon of St Andrew at Holy Trinity Sergyev Monastery (left). 4.
