Icons Morphed

Orthodox Christian icons are beautiful, spiritual works of art. Here, I morphed a selection to see the similarities and differences between styles. Music: Eternal Hope by Kevin MacLeod.

Very nicely done.

Interestingly, from :44 - :47, the icon is not Mary with Christ, but is St. Anna with the infant Mary.

What an keen observation. Thank you for the clarification.

A Masterpiece! Just no other words...

Thank you, Alicia, and thank you for sharing my video with others.

This was very beautiful and moving, I noticed that one of my husband's icons was included. The only thing that I would have changed is to have a choir singing one of the hymns to the Mother of God instead of the piano.

Your presentation of these images in their very morphing seems to convey a certain maternal respiration, holiness and peace. Nicely done. Thanks. +Peace+

Yes,Mary is the only icon that has stars on its head and shoulders and jesus is the only icon with the cruciform halo represented.

Alicia this is very moving. As I watched the expresions of Our Dear MOther and Christ Child change it brought tears to my eyes. I saw the sadness showing in her face especially because of the way the church treats people today. Peace & LOve, Abbot Bernard Sheffield, OSB
