Copy of Rublev's "Holy Trinity" icon in process

Here's what my copy of Rublev's icon "Holy Trinity" or "The Hospitality of Abraham & Sarah" looked like as it was being painted.  The gilding is done, and the large blocks of color are being laid in place.   It's always tricky to try and photograph gold - the reflections keep blowing away the automatic exposure settings!
