PANTOKRATOR - ROUND

This Catholic stained glass window is centered on the icon of Christ the Pantokrator (he who creates/rules all). This icon, where the divine and majestic beauty of the lord Jesus is wonderfully portrayed in his human nature, represents the synthesis of the first ecumenical councils and the church fathers, by successfully portraying both the splendor of Jesus' humanity and the brilliance of his divinity. Christ is clothed in a brilliant red tunic and covered by a royal blue cloak. The two colors reflect his twofold nature, while the gold entirely surrounding his body call attention to his person as the second person of the Holy Trinity. A golden stole the symbol of his eternal priesthood, falls from his right shoulder. His majestic and serene head is surrounded by a brilliant yellow halo in which is a red cross that represents the shedding of his blood on the cross roe our redemption. At the sides of his head are two Greek diliterals JS Ð CT (in the Greek alphabet}, which represents his name Jesus - Christ. Just below these letter are the Greek letters alpha and omega, Which Jesus used to describe himself as the beginning and end of all things. His right hand, with the thumb and ring finger touching each other (to signify the two natures of Christ in the unity of his person) is portrayed as giving a typical gesture of blessing. His left hand holds the open book of the Gospels, which are the heart of all scripture because they are the principle witness to the life and teaching of Jesus.

Suncatcher stained glass graphic icons are mounted in a 8.5" x 11" Gothic Lead Frame with an ample supply of strong nylon cord for display in a window setting.
