Yet, in iconography there are ways that the Iconographer/sculptor does represent the divine nature: I have seen icons, and many of our Lutheran Churches have statues of our risen Lord which depict him alive yet having the wounds of His Passion; I have seen depictions of His ascension; of Him seated on a throne as the King of Heaven and Earth; I have also seen depictions of the Annunciation.
For example, look at the Icon of the Nativity in Gxg's signature; a halo on the head of the Baby Jesus, and on the head of the Blessed Virgin Mary. I feel bad that St. Joseph was left out.
Images are also created out side of what God has provided for us in Scripture by another group of Iconographers that are often overlooked; the Hymnographers who use words to draw pictures. We see this in one of St. Ambrose's hymns; highlights are mine:
Verses 1 and 2 describe Christ as light and sun.
Verse 6 reliterates the Biblical ideas of Christ as the "bread of life" and also eludes to His true presence in the Eucharist.
Verse 8 used the idea of the rising sun, the "true dawn" as an image for Christ.
The other verses of this hymn are prayer, and the whole hymn itself draws an image of God as the Holy Trinity.
In the Agnus Dei Christ is depicted as a sacrificial lamb, and harkens back to the words of St. John the Baptist:
Those same words inspire art like this, which combines the symbolism of the Sun in St. Ambrose's hymn, John the Baptist's Lamb of God, and the Book of the Seven Seals from the Revelation of St. John. This mosaic can be found above the main door of The Church of our Lady in Guelph Ontario.
