Five Saints with Christ
This cast icon depicts a row of five saints under an image of Christ standing in Heaven. From the left, the saints are: two bishops, a monk, Florus, and Laurus. The heavenly realm from which Christ blesses the scene is separated from the earthly one by a line of clouds, and the upper border is formed by an arch inspired by church architecture.
