Among many objects belonging to the religious art there are not only great and significant works but also those which can get to almost everyone thanks to their availability. Religious images are included in this category. The history of creating small devotional representations dates back to 13th century, and the oldest documented example of holy pictures comes from 1423. From the very beginning the main topic of religious images was Christian iconography, which was supposed to present truths of faith to the faithful ones and encourage them to be more devout. Throughout the centuries techniques of creating images as well as materials from which they were made changed. Nevertheless, although years have passed, devotional representations in this form are still very popular, but due to automated production of a religious image, its artistic value decreased. Still, they become a collectible as well as fulfill an important evangelization mission.
