Dionysius of Fourna, author of The Painter's Manual (c.1670-after 1744) was obviously no mean painter. This beautiful icon of our Lord (120 cm x 93 cm) is from the iconostasis of the Monastery of Karakallou, Mount Athos. They published a book of their icons which you can get here. We don't just need to hear Christ we also need to see and to contemplate Him.
