6 of Christ Pantocrator, plus at least another 5 small palm size icons including the one from the Monastery of St. Catherine in Sinai.
1 of Christ entering Jerusalem on Palm Sunday
3 of Panagia and the Christ child, one of which is the icon Ierosolimitissa, plus at least 9 small palm size or larger. Two of them are courtesy of Oblio who brought them from Jerusalem.
3 of Panagia alone. In two she has her hands directing our gaze to her left where an icon of Christ is placed. The third is the icon Gerontissa from the Monastery Pantocrator on Mount Athos. It is unique in that is shows her whole body and she is gesturing to her right (it has a very interesting history and depicts one of the miracles she performed at the monastery)
1 of Panagia and the wounded Christ after his body had been taken from the cross
4 of Prodromos (John the Baptist)

Many of these are paper icons that have been framed. Others, particularly the small ones, are sitting on shelves around the house. I'm sure I have missed a few and I haven't even got to the icons in our car yet.
Actually, I can't remember off the top of my head which ones we have in the car so I'll just mention the ones I can remember.
Christ Pantocrator, Panagia and Christ child, Archangel Michael, Saint Christopher (yay Oblio
) and Saint Photios.
What can I say, we keep discovering family members we never knew we had
John.
P.S. If you think we have a lot of icons, we are not a patch on some English friends of our living here
