AI overview

Iconoclasm was a movement in Byzantine history in which religious images and icons were destroyed, which was eventually opposed and overturned by the Orthodox Church under the Byzantine empress Theodora and her son Michael III. The conflict between iconoclasm and the defense of religious images was significant enough in Byzantine religious and political life that its resolution came to be commemorated as the "Triumph of Orthodoxy."
