October 15, 2008

Dear friends,

"St. George the Warrior and the Miracle of the Serpent".

We have implemented several innovations in our website and hope that You experience of browsing our gallery will be more comfortable and enjoyable. For easier navigation, we rearranged a large number of icons and shortened the number of categories.

Therefore, the site has the following structure of categories:

• Two last collections of current year – Winter (Christmas Collection) and Summer (Pascha Collection).
• General Collection contains all icons from past collections and sets.
• Already sold icons offers permanent exhibition of sold icons.

Casting stays the same.

"Holy Virgin - the Burning Bush".

We publish two collections a year: Summer and Winter ones, therefore splitting the year into two parts. These will be very strong collections. Once we present the one, we start preparing the other, - for half a year we select, examine and attribute, take cleaning and conservation measures (when needed), make photographs and compose descriptions of icons.

Moreover, there will be a constant addition of icons into general collection (1-2 icons at a time). These new additions will appear in the General Collection approximately once in 10 days. Information regarding new arrivals will be placed in the news section on main page.

We hope that these changes will make our communication with You more informative, and Your browsing experience - more pleasant.
