Catholic icons are religious images that are used to represent significant figures in the Catholic faith. These images are often found in churches, on devotional items, and in other places of religious observance. The purpose of these icons is to serve as a reminder of the important events and teachings within the Catholic faith.
The history of Catholic icons dates back to the early Christian era, when images of Christ and the saints were painted on walls and ceilings of churches. This practice of painting icons was continued throughout the Middle Ages and Renaissance, with more sophisticated and detailed images being produced. Today, many churches still feature traditional Catholic icons, while others have adapted to a more modern style of artwork.
