{"product_id":"dormition-of-the-theotokos-framed-canvas-icon","title":"Dormition of the Theotokos Framed Canvas Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dormition icon depicts the falling asleep of the Mother of God, surrounded by the apostles gathered in mourning, as Christ Himself appears above to receive her soul, shown in the icon as a small swaddled figure cradled gently in His arms. Far from an image of despair, the Dormition is regarded by the Church as one of its great icons of hope, since it affirms that death has been transformed through Christ into a passage rather than an end, a falling asleep from which the faithful shall one day awaken. Tradition holds that the Theotokos, having lived out her days in prayer following the Ascension of her Son, was herself taken up body and soul into the glory of heaven, the first to share fully in the resurrection her Son had won for all. This icon is a profound and consoling image for anyone reflecting upon mortality, and a meaningful gift for a memorial or a remembrance of a loved one departed in the faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” (John 11:25)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO Theotokos, who didst fall asleep in peace and wast received into the arms of thy Son, intercede for us at the hour of our own death, that we too may pass from sleep into the joy of the resurrection.
