Does anyone know where I can find an Icon of Tenderness that St. Seraphim prayed before but in the Greek (or Georgian) style? Thanks!

Thanks. I appreciate the help. But it still looks like it's in the Russian style.

Considering that the original "Joy of All Joys" icon of St. Seraphim is influenced by Western iconography (e.g., there is no Christ Child depicted), I doubt that you will find a Greek version of it.

I stand corrected. Disregard my previous post.

Beautiful icon! Thanks, Deacon David.
Many years,

One thing Odd about that perhaps you could all correct me on. I saw the other thumbnails and the masters icons show on the right "The Icon not made by hands" and on the left the "Theotokos of Tenderness". I thought the left icon should always be the Theotokos AND infant Christ to show his First coming into the world, and the right as his Second coming as portrayed by the Risen Christ. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_Qy3tQN9vFOA/S9MqMVh-RsI/AAAAAAAAAn4/ZCI1XZnUGt0/CN8D9069.JPG
