A fabulous, traditional Russian-Orthodox Byzantine icon in canonical iconographic style. Image of the icon is made in high-quality polygraphic with double layers of metallographic printing. It is pasted to the wood or plywood plate basis.
Relatively recently, at the beginning of the XXI century, the icon of the Tree of the Most Holy Theotokos appeared in the history of iconography.. It is a collective image, since it depicts 16 miraculous faces of the Virgin, which describe Her as the Queen of Heaven after the birth of the Savior Jesus. In appearance, the shrine resembles a family tree, only there is no generational change on it. Having understood its structure, it becomes clear that everything grows from the very center of this tree.
In the very center of this amazing icon is the image of the Nativity of Jesus in Bethlehem. The Virgin Mary is sitting next to the manger in which the Blessed Jesus lies.
It is this event, the great Birth of the Eternal Baby, that is the basis of the Christian faith, and everything that is in it. This is not only the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, but also the birth of the Most Pure Virgin as the Queen of Heaven, the birth of faith and the coming of Christians to their creator – God.
The icon was consecrated by the provost of the Russian Orthodox church in Moscow.
