SAINT MARY MOTHER OF GOD
A Coptic Icon which depicts The Virgin Mary sitting on a chair with a blue stoned background adorned with stars to symbolize Heaven. Mary is holding The Baby Jesus on her arm so that she would be on His right hand side."Daughters of Kings are among your Honored Women, at your right Hand is the Royal Bride in Gold of Ophir" Psalm 45:9.
On her head cover is the Star of Virginity, and on her shoulder sits a Star symbolizing Heaven. Saint Mary is the Second Heaven, in which the Word has dwelt.
