I've just recently become aware of the whole world of Ethiopian painting. I don't really have much to say about it, because I don't really know anything about it yet except that I find it beautiful. So I'll just show you some examples of Ethiopian Christian icons.
St George slaying the dragon:
The flight to Egypt:
Another St George. Apparently George is very popular in Ethiopia:
Madonna and child. I don't know who the figures in the background are. Magi?
