Rarely an allegorical plot (it is considered an icon of the Mother of God). Known in Christian art from the second half of the XVI century. For months there is a virgin-pure soul in a royal garment with a crown on his head. In her hands, flowers and a jug with tears that extinguish the flame. Below is the dragon and snake she dumped (embodies sin), and a tamed lion, symbolizing defeated passions. A sinful soul sits in a dark cave.
There is an interpretation of the sun and the month, as symbols of the church and kingdom: the sun above the head of the Wife symbolizes the power of the priesthood, and the month under your feet means the radiance of royal power.
