I’m looking some help ladies and gents, I’m searching for an exact copy of this Icon of the Theotokos for my prayer corner. I’ve been looking but can’t find it anywhere, my church has one but I can’t seem to find any websites that sell it. My church has a copy with the tears coming down too. I have no clue where they got it from but I just want this exact Icon. Thank You all and God Bless
