Is there a difference between orthodox and catholic icons
Catholics and orthodox both hold as cannonical Nicaea II, which is the seventh eucumenical council defining the use of icons. But catholics hold it of great lesser importance than orthodox do. As @korg pointed out, this leads to the unfortunate use of "artistic liberties" in the making of icons by certain catholics past and present, rendering some of their icons unusable and improper for religious practice for the orthodox. To put it lightly.
