Icons are images or symbols representing something.
Religious icons are sacred paintings, especially in Eastern Orthodox tradition, depicting Christ, saints, or holy scenes.
Computer icons are small clickable images representing programs or files.
Cultural icons are people, things, or images that symbolize a movement or era: Marilyn Monroe remains a Hollywood icon.
The word suggests something worthy of reverence or instantly recognizable.
