Romanian icon Mother of God Kasperovskaya antiqued style 18x15 cm. The Orthodox icon is hand-painted by experienced iconographers trained in the Byzantine tradition. The image depicts the Virgin Mary embracing the Child Jesus in a gesture of deep tenderness and protection. On the original icon is the inscription "Glorious memory of the millennium of the existence of Russia", which attests to the historical and spiritual importance of this image. Numerous copies of this iconographic type exist; according to tradition the icon was brought from Transylvania to the Korsun region by a Serbian devotee in the 16th century. In February 1840, while the noblewoman Kasperovaya, owner of the village Novo Ivanovki, prayed before the icon, the image was miraculously renewed and suddenly became luminous. In remembrance of this event it has been solemnly honored on the Marian feasts of October 1 and June 29. The icon is delivered in an elegant red velvet box with a white satin interior, designed to protect and showcase the work. It is a piece of notable devotional and historical value, ideal for personal prayer spaces, faith-dedicated environments, or as a distinguished religious gift. Actual measurements: 18x14x2 cm.
