May our Lord continue to grant eternal blessed repose to His Eminence Metropolitan Maximos of Pittsburgh who dedicated himself to his faithful in his Metropolis of Pittsburgh which spans Pennsylvania except Greater Philadelphia, eastern Ohio running from Lorain through Columbus to the southeast tip of Ohio and West Virginia. His Eminence is buried outside the Chapel of the St. Gregory Palamas Greek Orthodox Monastery in Perrysville, Ohio, near Haysville, in Ashland, County. Metropolitan Maximos founded this Monastery. Archbishop Iakovos of America came to consecrate it.

Awesome! Such impressive skill in glorifying God. 🙏

Αυτή δεν είναι ορθόδοξη αγιογραφία, αλλά νεωτερισμούς σε στυλ καρικατούρα, χωρίς αισθητική, ....κρίμα να καταστρέφετε μια εκκλησία με τέτοιες τοιχογραφίες, ....βλέπεις το πρόσωπο του Χριστού και διερωτάται κάποιος αν είναι αυτό ο σκοπός της βυζαντινής τέχνης η γελοιοποίηση του Θεανθρώπου..

As an art historian, these videos are amazing and an invaluable source! Im defenetly going to check out more about orthodox art and inconography. Thank you!

I remember as a kid watching an iconographer do this in our church many years ago. He did it on his own.. lying down on his back. It was so incredibly perfect.. I asked him how he did it. He smiled and replied “I don’t know how.. God drew it.. I just held the pencil”

😍😍😍

Where George kordis got his reputation is beyond me.

Eat your heart out, Matisse.

This is spectacular. My neck hurts just from locking at him work.

И где они расписывают храм?

Кто это такие???

Amazing

I should've known that the Orthodox Church has an ancient amazing way to create Icons. Amazing!

Cool! It would be fun working along side so many artists like this.

Спасибо большое за видео.Я восхищаюсь работой художника,это очень тяжёлый труд. Мне всегда было интересно как же пишут под куполом. А сегодня я увидела,спасибо большое.

Very beautiful ❤

Halleluja!

Eso es fantástico hermoso.

Μια Ζωη ειχα την απορία πως ζωγραφίζουν στον τρούλο τον τεραστιο Παντοκράτορα απο τοσο κοντά. Πως μπορουν απο τοση κοντινη απόσταση να αντιληφθούν τις αναλογιες!!!! Το μονο που εύρισκα ,ηταν με προτζεκτορα ( οι σημερινοι). Αλλα οι παλιοι, μυστηριο!!!!Τωρα που το βλεπω ,με τοση ανεση ,το αποδιδω στην εξαιρετική πείρα του κ.Κόρδη .Θα ηταν ενδιαφέρον να μας ανέφερε ,να μας εδειχνε, χονδρικά ,τα πιο βασικά σε καποιο νdeo ετσι γιά να μας φυγει η απορια !!!! Ευχαριστω πολυ !!!🌷

Sono rimasta affascinata dal modo deciso con cui ha realizzato questa icona . Complimenti...anche perché dover stare con la testa in quella posizione non è per niente facile

What an interesting way to draw, to move around the drawing!

The Divine Trinity that the Church worships is really a personification of consciousness as 3 parts that are manifested in our human lives, from mortality, breath & transfiguration to immortality that is expressed in The Father (Energy), the Mother (Matter) & the Child (Son/Daughter) the offspring. Low, Middle, High; Left, Center, Right, Black, White, & Gray, Hot, cool/warm, Cold are reflective in IT.

Wow!!!

I thought I heard him say that incense is mixed into the egg yolks. Is that right?

Great to see a master at work. He doesn't seem to be working from any preliminary sketches on paper.

Fantastic document!, thanks for shearing us it. It is not easy drawing with the arms up, is really very tired.

It’s amazing! So professional! So perfect!

What paint or kind of medium are you using?

I was so glad that this beautiful liturgy was in English, greatly enjoyed, and Happy New Year!

Beautiful

Your Voices Are Beautiful! A gift from heaven to be sure, from the children to the Cantors and your Priest. Thank you for posting. You have allowed me to experience the amazing spirituality of Holy Week though I could not attend services in person. Thank you. Please continue sharing your gift.

Thank you, these videos are helpful for those who need to help with chanting at our parishes because they help us prepare by reviewing some of the hymns, readings, and services that only happen once a year.

wow!!!!

The guy with the charcoal stick is good, very good. Its hard enough to get that crispness and vitality when you are working with charcoal and paper on a table, never mind on the end of a stick several feet above your head. Especially the way he does the hands and fingers, AWESOME control. I'm guessing he has done many similar paintings before and knows the shapes and forms intimately.

he wants to make the Virgin Mary....a gorgon ?

Which English Psalter translation is used in this parish?

Thank you for the insight of such a sacred and sacrosanct process. Few through out history have had the opportunity of to view the creation through artistry of icons to behold the beginning of "Christ the Pantocreator " . I am much humbled and I thank you.

Remarkable artwork and teamwork!! Glory to God!

Bravo guys. keep posting

god bless the all Orthodox

Please excuse my ignorance but where are the people singing? Are they off camera?

I was just there in October. This is beautiful!! Was there a projection used? What guideline did they use? God bless!!!!

🙏⛪📖🌈💖👍!!
