The icon belongs to the type of Theological, that is, depicting the Teaching (Word) God's. This is one of the most unusual and rare icons from our collection. The maze depicted in the foreground with many exits symbolizes a person's life and possible ways of searching, wandering of his soul. The iconographer didactically depicted: there are many exits from the labyrinth to hell (these are different vices, pernicious hobbies), but there is only one way out to the salvation of the soul, to its immortality — a life of piety…
Before the icon, they pray in ignorance of what to do, ask for God's help in difficult situations.
The icon is made by printing on a wooden board. Paints are mineral, do not fade with time. The thickness of the board is 2 cm. The board is covered with prime by hand. The image is covered with wax. Each icon has a metal mount on the back side so that you can hang the icon on the wall.
