Iconography
Iconography or iconography is a branch of art history in which researches on determining, describing, and interpreting icons, ie, the contents of icons, are studied. Thus, in iconography, you identify and describe the subjects depicted in the icon, that is, the topics, the individual components and details used to represent the topics, and other elements distinct from the art form Interpret. The word "iconography" comes from ancient Greek acorns and grapefines. Acorn corresponds to the image of English, meaning an icon, such as a picture, an image or an icon, and grapefruit means writing. As a secondary meaning derived from this primary meaning, the icon of ancient Greek acorn, ie English, signifies the statue of the torch, especially the Byzantine art and the orthodox tradition of the Orthodox tradition.
