It must be because it’s the last thing I see every night before I go to sleep—a photograph by the Very Rev. Andrew Tregubov of the Anastasis (or “Descent into Hades”) icon fresco by 20th-century ...

An icon of the anastasis can be found in every Orthodox Church throughout the world, so there is no need for the curious to travel far.

The bronze work represents the Anastasis icon: Christ who descended into hell to destroy death and free humanity (represented by Adam and Eve) from slavery of sin.
