Penance Icon Version 1

PENANCE ICON

This is a reproduction of a 19th century Russian icon. It is one of our “decorative” or “mute” icons — it is merely a reproduction of an image, as opposed to our “talking” icons, which display quotes from Scripture when touched.

Our icons are created for private use and display in churches and other places in SL. They should not be resold or adapted for resale. Their size and position can be modified. Copy and Transfer permissions depend upon the particular version of the icon purchased.

ABOUT THIS ICON

This icon depicts the rite of penance in the Russian Orthodox Church. The priest (left) drapes his stole over the penitent. A guardian angel holds the crown of victory over the penitent’s head while the Holy Spirit (depicted as a dove) hovers overhead, illuminating them, and a demon walks away, foiled but still watching for future opportunities.

The original work is identified on Wikimedia Commons as a 19th century icon by an unknown iconographer, and as being in public domain. file:///Users/shorst%201/Documents/Icons/Angels/Guardian%20Angel%201/File:Таинство%20исповеди.JPG%20-%20Wikimedia%20Commons.html

ABOUT US

Windows Into Heaven produces icons for use in Second Life: both “talking” icons and basic or “mute” icons which are simple prim images. We use only images that are in public domain. Our icons are sold at nominal cost, so that they may be widely used. All icons can be edited by the buyer with respect to size and orientation, but the image (and in the case of “talking” icons, the text and script) cannot be edited. Please note the copy/transfer permissions for the particular icon.

Our icons should not be resold in either their original or modified form, though Transfer-enabled icons may be passed along to another user.
