Dormition of the Mother of God

And Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. For He has regarded the low estate of His servant; surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed. For He who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is His name. (Luke 1:46-49)

The icon is of the Dormition of the Mother of God (August 15th).
