The Holy Trinity Representation, depicts the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit distinctly, and although far more familiar from western hagiography icons is actually of Greek origin. 

Christ may be shown either as an adult, (in this case he is sitting to the right of his Father) or as an infant sitting on his Father's knees, which is the norm in early Greek depictions. 

This type is also called the Paternity icon, and is found from the 11th century on wards, although it did not become widespread in Orthodox art until after the Fall of Constantinople.

 The Father is painted as the Old Days, a white-bearded man with a very special type of nimbus (it contains two rombic figures: one is red, another is blue, or is a triangle). 

The Middle Image of the Holy Spirit is shown as a white dove with a Halo of the same type as Father has. 

The dove may be placed between the Father and the Son (if they sit near each other at the same level),or the dove may be shown in a beam of light from the mouth of the Father, as if the Holy Spirit was just sent by Him.
