About the icon: In the center of the icon there is a labyrinth, from which two exits lead up to eternal life, and eleven - down to the fiery hell. Inside the maze is a circle where the beginning and end of a person's stay on Earth are represented. The baby is still lying in the cradle (on the left), and death, depicted in the form of a skeleton (in the center), is already ready to mow it down. On his deathbed (on the right), an angel takes a person's soul, but there is also a demon with a list of the sins of the deceased. The life path of a person is depicted as a stepped staircase, along which a man and a woman ascend and descend. At the first stage they are still children, at the last they are very old. Inscriptions indicate their age: from 1 year to 90 years.
