The formation of the iconography of the Descent of the Holy Spirit took place immediately after the iconoclastic period, during the years of Saint Photius.

It shows the presence of Christ in the Holy Spirit, invisible yet clearly emphasized by the central position among the Apostles, which remains empty from the day of the Ascension until the glorious day of His Second Coming.
