Features Novena for Mother of Perpetual

The picture of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour belongs to the group of Passion icons of the 15th century.
These paintings are characterized by the symbols of the passion and the austere features of the Madonna and the Child.
Around the crowned head of the Madonna are the words "Mother of God".
On both sides are the two archangels Michael and Gabriel with their respective names inscribe above their head and holding the instruments of the Passion: St.Michael holding the spear and the sponge and St.Gabriel the Cross.
At the sight of the Cross the Child Jesus is stuck by fear his feet strike each other and knock off a struck by fear his feet strike each other and knock off a sandal from this foot and he clings to this mother for support.
The features of the Madonna are gave conveying a message of hope and an assurance of help to all those who in identical circumstances will appeal to her for help.
These is also a plea in her eyes: do not hurt my Son more by sin and I will help you by his goodness.
