Irina Yazykova tells the dramatic history of Russian Orthodox icons in the 20th century. Despite persecution and the destruction of monasteries and much of religious life, a small group of iconographers kept the ancient story and practice alive. Here, she tells the saga of those iconographers who at great personal cost preserved the tradition from the time of the Bolshevik persecutions through to the present day, restoring and developing Russian iconography under the harshest of circumstances.
