The icon ‘The Mother of God, the Joy of All Who Sorrow’ represents the Virgin Mary, and traditionally includes images of people afflicted by illness and sorrow and Angels doing good deeds in the name of the Virgin. The Mother of God is depicted full-length, standing in a mandorla (radiance). Above in the clouds God the Father is depicted. In the lower part of the icon, we can see an image of a ship, which does not occur very often, and it comes from the Western tradition of venerating the Madonna of Sailors. In Russia the image was prayed for protection and patronage of all sea travellers. The iconography 'Our Lady of the Navigators' was
adopted by the Russian icon painters of the Kremlin Armoury from the late 17th century.
