St. Paul pictures JesusChrist as the likenss ofGod [2 Cor. 4:4] and theimage of the invisibleGod [Col. 1:15]. Thehistory of the churchproves that christianity wasproclaimed not only by wordsbut also by symbolic represen-tations. From the very begin-ning of Christianity there ex-isted pictorial representations.Christian art was formulatedand developed. The church en-couraged art and symbolism asa part of Christian mission.Jesus himself took matter as anarena of salvific mission. Theseen and the unseen realitytook the form of mediums andsymbols. The spiritual mean-ings of such symbolism nur-tured through the ages.

What were the themespictured in early Christian ar-

tistic work?. Besides theobjects and varieties ofbiological species re-lated to the life andteachings of JesusChrist, geometrical im-

pressions such as cubes, rect-angles and circular notationswere used in such symbolism.Gradually ancient forms werereplaced by new ones being theproducts of a new world out-look. The new styles incorpo-rated images of Christian spiri-tual ideals. Greek Hellenic artand Alexandrian traditional artcoincided to form classical ar-tistic metaphors. Elementsfrom Egyptian, Syrian andCentral Asian artistic traditionswere also crept into such sym-bolic representations. Imagesand forms were used to denoteboth the divine and the mate-rial worlds. Such early Chris-

Fr. Dr. K.L. Mathew VaidyanArticle

tian artistic tradition was devel-oped with much vigour andvariety in the Byzantine Em-pire. The precious piety of theicon and the much celebratediconography evolved as the re-sult of dogmatic understandingand explanation of man's exist-ence in relation to God's will,power and wisdom.

Walls of Christianhomes in the early period weredecorated with pictures of sym-bolic animals, birds, flowersand plants. The symbols of fish,ship, sheep, shepherd, dove,ocean, vine, bread etc. werewidely used in the early Chris-tian system of communication.These symbols reflected bibli-cal understanding of a salva-tion. God's mercy, power,miracles and commandments.The message of the apostleswere transmitted through thesesigns and symbols. The cata-combs and later, the Christianchurches were adorned withsuch images. The fact of incar-nation and the works of salva-tion were explained throughthese symbols. A sailor denoteda Christian, the ship the Chris-tian life. The ship also con-veyed the heavenly blessingsbestowed upon a human being.In ancient Indo-European my-thology, a shepherd with a car-rier full of milk denoted pros-

perity. In Christian tradition,the good shephered is JesusChrist, the savior who giveshope and new life. ProphetEzekiel spoke about this goodshepherd: Thus says the LordGod, behold I am against theshepherds; and I will requiremy sheep at their hand, and puta stop to their feeding thesheep: no longer shall the shep-herds feed themselves. I willrescue my sheep from their

mouths that they may not befood for them (Ezek, 34:10).For thus says the Lord God :behold I, I myself will searchfor the sheep and will seekthem out. (Ezek 34:11). Andmust my sheep eat what youhave trodden with your feet anddrink what you have fouledwith your feet (Ezek. 34:19).The Psalm of David reads,

"The Lord is my Shep-herd, I shall not want,he makes me lie downin green pastures" (Ps.23:1,2). Jesus himselfreveals that H is theGood Shepherd (Jn. 10 : 14).

The Old Testamentsymbol of lamb was widelyused by early Christians. Num.28 : 3f, Ex. 29 : 39. The bloodof the lintel explained in theBook of Exodus is an importantsign in the life of the people ofIsrael. Ex. 12:23. JesusChrist is the Lamb ofGod as described in theNew Testament. Jn.1:29, Rev. 5:6, 13, 14:1,21:22. All the attributesof the Lamb is fulfilledin Christ Jesus. The un-blemished Lamb which drinkswater on the mountain springdenotes Jesus Christ. Themountain is the Church. Thesymbol of fish was of great im-portance to the early Christians.Jesus said to the fishermen :"Follow me, and I will makeyou fishers of men". Mt. 4:19,Mk. 1:17. The net, the boat, thesea, the fishermen, theleap of fish all thesesymbols were used bythe early Christians todenote the redemptionof souls. The four Gos-pels and the New Tes-

tament writers exhaus-tively used these sym-bols. The church hasplaced Christ and Hisministry at the care ofits life. The Greek

world for fish ichthus, whenexpaneded stands for JesusChrist, son of God, Savior. Thisis the sum-total of Christianfaith. It is to be noted that theearly Christians even kept withthem small prototypes of fishmetallic or made of stone or

even with preciouspebbles. They used towear ornaments inwhich the form of fishwas incribed. Also thetradition of usingcrosses, metallic orwooden, developed in

the church. In ancient Christiancentres, catacombs full of suchincriptions are excavated. Pic-tures of fish and the inscriptionsof the word ichthus are foundout from these Christian centreson a large scale. The new birththrough baptism in water andspirit is recalled through thesymbol of fish. The writings of

Tertullian, Clement Al-exandria, Augustine ofHippo, Irenaeus,Origen and other schol-ars of the early churchprove that the symbolof fish was so dear to

the early church.The symbols of vine

and vineyard have both eccle-siastical and sacramental sig-nificance. Jesus said : Abide inme, and I in you. As the branchcannot bear fruit by itself, un-less it abides in the vine, nei-ther can you, unless you abidein me. I am the vine and you arethe branches. He who abides inme, and I in Him, he it is thatbears much fruits, for apart fromme you can to nothing". (Jn. 15:4, 5). The central importanceand mutual connection ofChrist, Church and sacramentallife are vividly prictured in thispassage. In his 'Pedagogue',Clement of Alexandria said,'Vineyard gives vine just us theWord gave His own blood'. Thispassage has Old Testamentroots. Moses brought branch ofvine from the land of Canaan.It shows the land of promise. Inthe New Testament, we see thatthe person who partakese in theBody and Blood of Christ inher-its eternal life, the new land ofCanaan.

All these symbolic rep-resentations are seen in thecatacombs even today. A largevariety of these arts are seen instones and frescoes, togetherwith texts of prayer, robes,wooden and metal cross and soon. The portraits of Jesus, the

Mother of God, Apostles, Mar-tyrs and Saints are seen.Mother of God holding infantJesus, and prophets are alsopictured. Archaeological find-ings from the catacombs in-clude the micracles of Jesus,events from the life of St. Mary,the Last Supper, The resurrec-tion of Lazar, Transfigurationon Mt. Tabor, Ascension of theLord, Resurrection and Secondcoming of the Lord, the Adventof the Holy Spirit, the callingof Abraham, the sacrifice ofIssac, Moses and his life, thestream of water from Rock,Prophet Elijah, Prophet Jonah,Prophet Daniel and the life.

Writings and artisticworks on the tombs had dog-matic, aesthetic and apologeticconnotations which explainedfaith in the resurrection of thedead and life after death. Themeaning of the symbolic rep-resentations in the early churchwas unknown to the non-be-lievers whereas it as crystalclear to the community of be-lievers. They got the messageand transferred it to future gen-erations. The art and symbolisexplain the love, power andactions of God. They can berightly called "Theology inColour" and the Media withsupreme vigour and variety...
