Russia's most famous icon -- the Trinity by Andrei Rublev -- was officially transferred to the use of Russia's Orthodox Church for a period of 49 years, despite protests from Russia's museum community. The transfer was signed by the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill, and Culture Minister Olga Lyubimova. The icon was moved from the Tretyakov Gallery Arts Museum to Moscow's Christ the Savior Cathedral in April. Museum officials and scientists have been opposing the transfer of the icon, saying it would be damaged by the change in microclimate and vibrations during the transfer.
