Dalmatic Style Priest Vestment “Byzantium 4 with the icon “Weep Not For Me, O Mother” “

Description

The iconography of this image was shaped by Byzantine art of the 13th century, and then came into Old Russian tradition at the end of the 15th century.
The icon Weep Not For Me, O Mother depicts the Mother of God hugging Christ who stands in the tomb with the cross in the background. This image is often called the Orthodox Pieta (Italian pieta – crying), as it reveals the theme of mourning for Christ before His laying in the coffin.The Orthodox image does not convey only the sense of the totality of death. On the contrary, one hears the news of the Resurrection through the mourning.
This is evidenced by the name of the image, which is associated with the irmos of Ode 9 of the Canon of St. Cosmas of Maiuma on the Great Saturday: “Weep not for me, O Mother, beholding in the tomb… for I shall arise and shall be glorified, and as God I shall exalt with glory unceasing those that with faith and love magnify thee.”
