Old Style Orthodox Icon: Salus Populi Romani

A traditional Orthodox-style icon of Salus Populi Romani (“Protectress of the Roman People”), an image historically associated with protection, intercession, and devotion. This type is recognized for its solemn depiction of the Theotokos (Mary) holding the Christ Child, reflecting centuries of veneration in both Eastern and Western Christian traditions.

Produced in Russia, the icon is mounted on a hand-carved wooden panel, giving the surface subtle relief and texture characteristic of carved icon panels. The construction provides a tactile, enduring piece suitable for devotional use. The reverse bears a stamped seal indicating origin, and a fitted hook allows for immediate placement in a home icon corner or on a wall.
