The icon represents a classical iconography of DEESIS - Christ in the middle, on a throne, with Theotokos on his left and St. John the Baptist - on his right side. In Orthodoxy Theotokos and St John the Baptist are patrons of the Mankind before Christ on the day of Judgement, for praying salvation for all people.
