Icon known as The Joy of All Who Sorrow. The Virgin Mary is depicted in a garden in Paradise bestowing her blessing on all, every rank of mankind is gathered around her to receiving her gifts. Above, in the clouds, Christ in the vestments of the High Priest gives His blessing to the scene below. In Orthodox theology the Virgin is the mediator between her Son and those who ask for her help in prayer. She does not act alone, without the consent of the Son.

Good overall condition. There is moderate wear to the high points obscuring some of the details of the faces, but the figures in deep 3-d profile are still well defined and their meaning is unmistakable. The icon is completely free of significant scratches, dings or bumps. Attractive toning to the bronze throughout with minor amount of verdigris in the recessed areas that does not detract.
