Extreme Humility of Virgin Mary Blue Religious Christmas Icon Ornament 4 3/4"

Description: Extreme Humility of Virgin Mary Blue Religious Christmas Icon Ornament 4 3/4" Scenes from the life of Christ, images of Jesus with the Virgin, images of the events recorded in the gospels are depicted as religious icons and are in the hands of millions of people all over the world. As a general rule, icons strictly followed models and formulas hallowed by Byzantine art, led from the capital in Constantinople. As time passed, the Russians widened the vocabulary of types and styles far beyond anything found elsewhere in the Orthodox world. The personal, innovative and creative traditions of Western European religious art were largely lacking in Russia before the 17th century when Russian icon painting became strongly influenced by religious paintings and engravings from both Protestant and Catholic Europe. In the mid-17th-century changes in liturgy and practice instituted by Patriarch Nikon resulted in a split in the Russian Orthodox Church. The traditionalists, the persecuted "Old Ritualists" or "Old Believers", continued the traditional stylization of icons, while the State Church modified its practice. From that time icons began to be painted not only in the traditional stylized and non-realistic mode, but also in a mixture of Russian stylization and Western European realism, and in a Western European manner very much like that of Catholic religious art of the time. These types of icons, while finding in Russian Orthodox churches, are also sometimes found in various sui juris rites of the Catholic Church. Icons considered miraculous were said to "appear." The "appearance" of an icon is its supposedly miraculous discovery. "A true icon is one that has 'appeared', a gift from above, one opening the way to the Prototype and able to perform miracles". DESCRIPTION: Attractive Sparkled Beautiful Religious Christmas Tree Ornament Decoration Featuring Nativity Icon Ornament - it is very light Comes With Ribbon for Hanging Made of a Harden Plastic - not breakable ornament - light weight Size: 4 1/2 inch diameter Made In The Ukraine - Wonderful Gift on Christmas Day OUR LADY OF EXTREME HUMILITY - UMILENIE -OUR LADY OF TENDERNESS - OUR LADY OF SORROWS - LA DOLOROSA - MOTHER OF SORROWS - - JOY OF ALL JOYS There are many different names for and variations of this icon in Eastern and Western veneration. Regardless of how it is portrayed its message is the same - come to me! The icon is in an "Eleusa" style - meaning the Virgin is compassionate and conveys intimacy, gentleness and grace to her children. Our loving Mother! One of the few icons in which the Blessed Mother (Theotokos) is pictured alone. Her hands are crossed with humility in acceptance of the will of God. The Western Church celebrates the Virgin of Extreme Humility (also known as Mother of Sorrows) on Sept 15th - the day after the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. In the East, its feast day is July 28th (August 10th Old Calendar) and Dec 9 (Dec 22nd Old Calendar) on the Feast of the Conception of St Anne. The icon is very famous for the veneration of our Lady by St Seraphim of Sarov a Russian ascetic of the 18th century - a holy man venerated in the Orthodox Church on January 2 and the opening of his relics on July 19th. Tradition holds St Seraphim prayed most of this life before this image - one tradition holds he prayed for 2000 days on a stone slab in front of this image and died in its presence on Jan 2, 1833. Many of the visitors to St Seraphim were healed by this icon. It is miraculous today in the Diveevsk Seraphimovsk Monastery. Pope Saint John Paul II in 2003 referred to St Seraphim as a saint. Known for his holiness and spiritual writings he is studied by and the patron of some Catholic spiritual groups.
