I too was surprised at the iconography in the new Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow. But the intent was to rebuild the cathedral which the Soviets had dynamited as closely as possible as it was before its destruction. Alas, that meant Italianate-style icons too!--I do think they could still have rebuilt it with proper Byzantine-Russian style iconography in the new cathedral. But I wasn't consulted.

You mean Patriarch Alexei or Metropolitan Kyrill didn't contact you directly for your opinion, OE? I'm shocked. smile

No, I wasn't consulted, Diak, But then, I belong to the OCA, not the Moscow Patriarchate, so it was expected! :-(
