More than 40 sacred images on view in Windows into Heaven are the type once readily found in even the humblest homes of Russia, as well as its churches and public shrines. The exhibit (located in the Focus Gallery) includes painted panels, carved items and pieces cast in brass. The exhibit introduces the public to these beautiful and complex objects and demonstrates the rich variety of styles and techniques of Russian icons of this period.
