Hi All:

While at the Tretyakov Museum in Moscow looking at old icons, I spotted "The
Transfiguration" by Theophanus the Greek and his Studio (rather unusual name
for a painter and I suppose that the painting could only be identified as
having been done by someone from his school.) The painting shows two very stylized
bonsai, very green and small plants and two very small pots; each plant plus
pot being barely 2*4 inches on an icon 3*5 ft.
