| Description |
Our Lady of the Gate of Dawn (Lithuanian: Aušros Vartų Dievo Motina, Polish: Matka Boska Ostrobramska, Belarusian: Маці Божая Вастрабрамская) is the prominent painting of the Blessed Virgin Mary venerated by the faithful in the Chapel of the Gate of Dawn. The Renaissance painting, completed possibly in the first half of the 17th century, is an unusual portrayal of Madonna as she is depicted without infant Jesus. The artwork soon became known as miraculous and inspired a following. A dedicated chapel was built in 1671 by the Discalced Carmelites. At the same time, possibly borrowing from the Eastern Orthodox tradition, the painting was covered in expensive and elaborate silver and gold clothes leaving only the face and hands visible. Bron: Wikipedia In deze kapel hangt de icoon die op de volgende foto te zien is. Recht boven de poort. Op mooie dagen wordt het raam van de kapel opengezet, zodat je ook vanaf de straat de icoon enigszins kunt zien. Je kunt namelijk de kapel alleen bereiken via een lange behoorlijk steile trap. Voor sommige oudere mensen is dat een forse drempel (sic), dus blijven zij beneden op straat en zeggen daar hun gebed of bidden daar hun rozenkrans. |
