I'm not knowledgeable enough to know what piece specifically, unless it was created for the album, but that's definitely the style.

Yeah, it's definitely Byzantine iconography. I suspect its just an artificially doctored copy of an original piece.
I'd say Byzantine art is pretty awesome in general though. It's a period I may have to investigate further.
|
| |
It's definitely cool, but kind of like medieval art, it has a very specific aesthetic that isn't deviated from very much. Generally it's not something I'm as interested in, personally. Byzantine mosaics are very cool though in my opinion.

Not that well versed in art history though, just am close to someone who is and have taken one course on it before I graduated.

I wouldn't say most modern bm is overproduced at all. Maybe some, but not most.

Yeah there's been a little bit of boring black metal recently, but it's not as bad as you say, there's been way, way more great black metal albums coming out lately than bad ones.
