Wzór ikony do haftu koralikowego (bez koralików) „Ikona Matki Bożej Czułości”

«Icon of the Mother of God of „Tenderness“» shows the Mother of God with hands crossed at her breast and eyes lowered.

What the picture shows

She is shown half-length, head slightly inclined, hands folded at her breast. A pale green headcloth with white edging covers her hair, and over it lies a light-blue mantle in broad folds, with a red dress visible beneath. The face is painted in soft light tones, the gaze downcast. Behind her head the halo comes in two parts: a pale disc and a large eight-pointed star in ochre-yellow and gold, its rays reaching upward and out to the sides. The ground is a warm beige-ochre with a faint pattern. The wide border is brown-russet with a diamond ornament and small coloured insets, and a light inscribed plaque runs along the bottom. Coverage is partial — the figure, the halo with its star and the border ornament are beaded, while the beige ground stays printed on the canvas.
