Icons are not meant to reflect reality, they serve as symbols of faith, meant to spiritually inspire the onlooker. They are conceived mainly to express ideas in the context of religious belief. The mother of God is hence depicted more as a symbol, rather than a personification. Here she sits solemnly on a cloud between two cherubs.
