Russian Icon - All-Hymned Mother of God with border saints

The Icon “O All-Hymned Mother” derives its title from the thirteenth Kontakion (Hymn) of the Akathist to the Most Holy Theotokos. "O All-Hymned Mother [O Vsepyetaya Mati] bearer of the holiest of holies Word, accept what we offer now, protect us all from every attack, and deliver from the coming torment all those who cry to you." The Mother of God is depicted wearing a crown, and clasping Her child to Her breast with both hands. Christ is held in Her left arm, and rests on Her left shoulder. He is facing Her, and both of His hands are placed below Her neck. Instead of the usual stars on Her head and shoulders, the faces of angels appear in three circles.

The border saints are the Guardian Angel and Saint Anne.
