@midnightmys2: These historic icons are being shared as proof that Russia preserved the “true face” of Jesus. But an icon is not a photograph. Some dark complexions may be intentional; others may reflect age, varnish, soot, lighting or restoration. Their real message is still powerful: Christian art and history were far more diverse than many of us were taught. #CrownsBeforeChains #BlackHistory #ChristianHistory #AfricanHistory #ArtHistory
