About The Artwork
Our Lady of the Gate of Dawn. Lithuanian: Aušros Vartų Dievo Motina. Polish: Matka Boska Ostrobramska. Russian: Остробрамская икона Божией Матери. According to Orthodox Christians, the icon of the Mother of God of the Gate of Dawn is a part of the composition of the Annunciation. After all, this copy of the ancient Byzantine image of the Virgin Mary shows her at the moment when she received the Good News, brought to her by Archangel Gabriel. That’s why the Virgin Mary is depicted without the Holy Infant. Her face with lowered, almost closed eyes, reveals her chaste humility, deepest peace, and submission to God’s will. The hands of Our Lady are crossed on her chest, just as it is now customary to approach the Holy Communion. She has a two-tier crown on her head. Rays emanate from her face like from the sun. She is surrounded by a halo of stars. There is a crescent at the bottom of the icon. The Mother of God is depicted half-figure.

I practice as an iconographer for over 15 years, after I have graduated from the Sacral Art Department of the Lviv National Academy of Arts (Ukraine). Having achieved Master’s Degree (2007), I proceeded to Postgraduate school, combining scholarship with teaching. My Thesis is devoted to the iconography of Old-Testament Trinity in the ancient Ukrainian art. In my art activity I am seeking the new, relevant in our age, artistic means of expression of the Orthodox icon tradition, while maintaining the fundamental principles of this tradition.
