The most famous iconographic theme in art is the theme of the Virgin Mary and Child. For centuries this topic refer all painters. Not just the images of saints, bohouhodnykiv and pictures of their earthly life form the basis of their work in this field painting. But the glorification themes of motherhood, maternal love for the newborn, mother and child relationship. In the Byzantine iconographic tradition rather strongly pronounced disproportion of human bodies. So here, in the picture of Basil Karvatskoho met all these canons. Mary holding baby Jesus on his arm. Godmother is dressed in a red blanket with golden canvas on the edge. Bedspread fitting her body, and imposed by the head, and hands. Its right arm bent at the elbow, as if he points to Jesus directs our attention to the main icon of the person who should be given our focus. Baby is sitting on the left hand of the Virgin. One hand touches Jesus Mary, in the other holds some roll. He dressed in light clothes - a symbol of purity and charity.
