Icon of the widow with the two mites

[Brendan Kulp]

Does anyone know of where I coud find a picture, whether it be online or in a book, of an Icon which depicts the story from the new testament of the widow with the two mites? In an Icon manual I have it does give a description for it, so I know there must have been Icons painted of this at one time or another.
Any help finding this would be very much appreciated, as its for a part of an Icon someone commissioned from me.

So far I haven't found what you're looking for.

If you don't end up finding anything, you might be able to take icons that might be visually similar and adapt them. (a couple examples that come to mind: and icon of the parable of the leaven (http://www.eikonografos.com/album/displayimage.php?album=62&pos=744), treasure in the field (http://www.eikonografos.com/album/displayimage.php?album=62&pos=746), Christ healing the bent woman (http://www.srpskoblago.org/Archives/Decani/exhibits/Collections/Miracles/CX4K2163_l.html), etc.)

Found one on somebody's Flickr page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/a_whistling_train/255695212/in/set-72157594305044142/) - it's a picture of a wall icon from St. Michael's Orthodox Church in Louisville, KY.

Hopefully this isn't too late to be useful.


In Christ,
Michael

Thank you very much for the link Michael, that came just in time actually!
The Icon looks just like the Icon manual describes it.
Also, thank you Niko, and anyone else who took the time to look for this, I really appreciate it!
