Antique icon restored Joy of who Sorrow, 30x25 cm Russia.
This legendary icon speaks of the sister of Patriarch Loakim: sick for a long time, the woman heard a voice ordering her to pray to the icon of the Virgin. She followed the orders and, after the plea, was sprinkled with holy water. Subsequently, the woman recovered completely. Since then this image is seen as a protection against all diseases. The miracle occurred on October 24th, dedicated as a day of celebration for this Russian icon. The image is very particular: the Virgin is much larger than the other figures in the icon and is raised while with her hand she points the way to the Son. Russian icon made with tempera on levkas wood, belonging to the Tsardom era and slightly restored to maintain quality and authenticity.
