Our Mother of Compassion - Icon Reproduction

Round rather than the usual rectangle, the shape of this icon recalls the endless love between God and humanity. God seen in the human form of the Child Jesus, and humanity, represented by the Virgin Mary. Mother and Child wear expressions of deepest compassion and tenderness as they contemplate the process of redemption that they have begun together. Because it became too expensive to produce them, we have added a gold border to the formerly round shape of this design to make it rectangular for mounting on wood or matting. The greeting cards and holy cards still have a white border.
