The Reigning 1993

Documentary

On the day of the abdication of Emperor Nicholas II, the icon of the Mother of God "Derzhavnaya" appeared to the Orthodox world. Historians and theologians believe that this miraculous event cannot be interpreted in any other way than as the assumption of earthly power by the Queen of Heaven to save the Russian land. The Queen is depicted with the Child Jesus on a royal throne, wearing a royal robe with the symbols of royal authority: a crown, a scepter, and a orb. You can worship the icon at the Church of the Ascension in Kolomenskoye.
