I can't identify the icon's origins, but that is my favorite recording of the hymn! (From the album First Fruits .)

I've never seen this one before, Alice, but it is extraordinarily beautiful.
Many years,

To my knowledge, the icon most resembles the Romanian tradition. However, many Romanian parishes and iconographers have decided to prefer the Greek tradition, such as my local one. These icons seem somewhat similar in style: http://www.traditional-from-romania.ro/index.php?cPath=1_42
