The History of the San Damiano Crucifix
An unknown Umbrian artist painted the original Crucifix Icon in the 12th Century.
The Icon of the Transfigured Christ
For Eastern Christians the Icon is a representation of the living God, and by coming into its presence it becomes a personal encounter with the sacred, through the grace of the Holy Spirit. The San Damiano Icon is then a personal encounter with the transfigured Christ - God made man
