Its just fine--some day I will get one of those beautiful Byzantine icons for my icon corner.
BUT until then i have two lg postcard icons that i framed under glass. one is st Nikolas and the other is Arch angel Michael.
i have one Byzantine style reproduction i got from a D.C. museum for abt 20 bucks.
a framed Jesus on the cross that was sent to me from Greece made by needle point by my aunt.
and my favorite a Jesus (pandocrator) picture from a magazine that i cut out an framed under glass 8x10.
and a few other kick knack type stuff.
Wow, i think that’s TMI!
but my point is heck yes its just fine. most people cant afford the real thing but this is AOK.
NOTE: If you have a good printer you can print out copies of the beautiful old icons and even frame them on wood so they look like the original.
do a web search for how to do this if you interested.
