Gottesmutter Vladimirskaja
Mother of God Vladimirskaya. Russia
H 35,3, W 30,6 cm.
The Vladimir Mother of God is characterized by the close bond - cheek to cheek - between mother and child and is the most worshipped icon in Russia. The type of depiction derives from a popular icon, which was located in a cathedral in Vladimir from the 12th to the 14th Century. While there are some local variations of this depiction with divergent names, the Vladimirskaya can be detected by the visible sole of Christ's left foot.
