Description
Also known as the Virgin of Unfading Flower. The Virgin Mary with the Christ Child on her knee. His right hand raised in blessing, holding an orb representing the world on His lap and the stem of a lily with three blooms symbolize the Holy Trinity. The lilies also symbolize the unfading flower of virginity and purity of the Mother of God, the Church sings: “You are the root of virginity and the Unfading Flower of purity.” This icon is used by Christian believers when praying for love, family happiness, peace, and healing.
The Eternal Bloom icon is known since the end of the 17th century. One of the most important early examples of this Christian icon was kept in the Moscow’s Alekseevsky Female Monastery in the 18th century, where it was venerated as miracle-working. Unfortunately, this antique Russian icon of the Mother of God has not survived until our days, though its copies can be found worldwide.
