At the upper right, the saint appears through clouds to bless, while a galley, with folded sails and a red flag, sails into rough sea. In the inscription we read: deesis of the servant of God Augustinos. Augustinos must had been saved miraculously from a possible shipwreck due to a sea storm. As a gesture of gratitude, he dedicated the icon to Saint Spyridon the patron saint of his home town.
