The icon was part of the iconostasis of the destroyed church. The church was torn down in 1942 because of a city rehabilitation project. The works of art were moved to a museum. [6]
The most usual depiction of the Trinity in Renaissance art depicts God the Father as an old man, usually with a long beard and patriarchal in appearance, sometimes with a triangular halo (as a reference to the Trinity), or with a papal tiara, specially in Northern Renaissance painting. In these depictions The Father may hold a globe or book.
