This print showcases the masterpiece "Theotokos Life-giving Spring" painted by Simon Ushakov in 1670. The artwork, found in the prestigious collection of The Novodevichy Convent in Moscow, is a testament to Ushakov's exceptional talent and devotion to his craft. "Theotokos Life-giving Spring" depicts the Virgin Mary as the embodiment of motherhood and divine grace. Standing before a serene spring, she cradles the infant Christ in her arms with tenderness and love. This iconic representation holds significant importance within Christianity, symbolizing Mary's role as both the Mother of God and a source of spiritual nourishment for believers. Ushakov's mastery is evident through his meticulous attention to detail and vibrant use of colors. Executed using tempera on panel, this Russian icon painting exudes an ethereal quality that transports viewers into a realm where faith intertwines with art. As part of the Moscow School tradition, Ushakov's work exemplifies the rich heritage of Russian religious art. With its profound symbolism and spiritual significance, "Theotokos Life-giving Spring" serves as a powerful reminder of Mary's patronage over humanity and her ability to bestow blessings upon those who seek solace at her feet. This awe-inspiring image captures not only Ushakov's artistic prowess but also reflects centuries-old Orthodox beliefs ingrained deeply within Russian culture. It stands as an enduring testament to faith, beauty, and reverence
