The Holy Spirit has been represented in Christian art both in the Eastern and Western Churches using a variety of depictions.〔''Renaissance art: a topical dictionary'' by Irene Earls 1987 ISBN 0-313-24658-0 page 70〕〔''Gardner's art through the ages: the western perspective'' by Fred S. Kleiner ISBN 0-495-57355-8 page 349〕〔Vladimir Lossky, 1999 ''The Meaning of Icons'' ISBN 0-913836-99-0 page 17〕 The depictions have ranged from nearly identical figures that represent the three persons of the Holy Trinity from a dove to a flame.〔 The Holy Spirit is often depicted as a dove, based on the account of the Holy Spirit descending like a dove on Jesus at his baptism.〔 In many paintings of the Annunciation, the Holy Spirit is shown in the form of a dove, coming down towards Mary on beams of light, as the Archangel Gabriel announces Christ's coming to Mary. A dove may also be seen at the ear of Saint Gregory the Great─as recorded by his secretary or other church father authors, dictating their works to them. The dove also parallels the one that brought the olive branch to Noah after the deluge, as a symbol of peace.〔''We Believe in the Holy Spirit'' (Ancient Christian Doctrine, No. 4) by Joel C. Elowsky (Jul 13, 2009) InterVarsity ISBN 0830825347 page 14〕 The book of Acts describes the Holy Spirit descending on the apostles at Pentecost in the form of a wind and tongues of fire resting over the apostles' heads. Based on the imagery in that account, the Holy Spirit is sometimes symbolized by a flame.〔''The Holy Spirit: Classic and Contemporary Readings'' by Eugene F. Rogers Jr. (May 19, 2009) Wiley ISBN 1405136235 pages 121-123〕 There are also depictions of the Holy Spirit in the book of Genesis. In The Vatican Museum in Rome is a carved stone sarcophagus depicting the Holy Trinity as three bearded men during the creation of Eve.〔''Early christian art and architecture'' by Milburn, R., & Milburn, R. L. P. (1988) Los Angeles: University of California Press. ISBN 0520063260 page 68〕 The majority of early Christian art depicts The Holy Spirit in an anthropomorphic form as a human with two other Identical human figures representing God the Father and Jesus Christ. They either sit or they stand grouped closely together. This is used to portray the unity of The Godhead.〔''Three Drawing in an Anglo-Saxon Pontifical: Anthropomorphic Trinity of Threefold Christ?'' by Rosenthal, J. E.
