Item Description
The origin of the Our Lady (Mother) of Perpetual Help icon is uncertain, although many have thought that it was painted by St. Luke and venerated in Constantinople until that Holy City fell in 1453. The Byzantine style and Greek lettering are consistent with an icon of Eastern origin.
The "Our Lady of Perpetual Help" icon is popular among both Catholics and non-Catholics. In 2001, Pope John Paul II presented an icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Help to a Muslim cleric on the first visit of a Pope to a mosque.
This tile mosaic was Made in Holland as noted on the reverse.
