Trinity (Russian: Троица, also called 'Rublev's Trinity') is a Holy Trinity Icon, believed to have been created by Russian painter Andrei Rublev in the 15th century. It is his most famous work, as well regarded as one of the highest achievements of Russian art. Trinity depicts the three angels who visited Abraham at the oak of Mamre (see Genesis 18,1-15), but the painting is full of symbolism and often interpreted as an icon of the Holy Trinity. The original is currently held in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. It was commissioned in honor of the abbot Sergius of the Troitse-Sergiyeva Lavra, near Moscow. Two copies were made (in 1598-1600 and in 1926-28), both kept in Troitse-Sergiyeva Lavra's Cathedral iconostasis.
