Summary/Abstract: Andrei Rublev was not only a scholar and native of Russia, but also of Byzantine culture as well as of the Orthodox Church, which reached far beyond the Russian borders. His artistic work became part of the Byzantine and Greek art tradition, and his most important teacher was Theophanes the Greek. Rublev was a person, Christian and monk who grew up in the Christian spiritual tradition, which was based on the teachings of the Fathers of the Church and the spiritual doctrine of Mount Athos. Thus, in writing about Rublev as a great painter and saint, a whole treasure of Eastern Rite spiritual culture is revealed. The most famous Russian icon painter of all times, Rublev was considered by his contemporaries to be a just and holy man with high moral standards.
