Russian icon, handmade and hand painted by Russian artists, according to the traditional techniques and norms of Russian iconography.
This icon's origin is related to a legendary event occurred in 1579, when this image appeared in a young girl's dream.

In this image the hieratic treats of Hodegetria is softened by the Mother's expression.
