	Icon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Eastern Orthodox view of the origin of icons is quite different from that of mainstream scholarship and even from the contemporary Roman Catholic view: "The Orthodox Church maintains and teaches that the sacred image has existed from the beginning of Christianity" (Leonid Ouspensky, Theology of the Icon, St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 1978).

		The Eastern Orthodox teaching regarding veneration of icons is that the praise and veneration shown to the icon passes over to the archetype (Basil of Caesarea,On the Holy Spirit 18:45: "The honor paid to the image passes to the prototype").
