The composition is interesting in its pictorial variety. The
fine elaboration of the garments and personal attributes
endows the icon with a high artistic value. Exquisite
miniature painting, elongated proportions of figures,
bright color palette, masterful execution of attributes and
ornaments on clothes give the image a special festive
decorative effect.
