EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 12th century icon, known as Our Lady of Vladimir, is a prime example of Byzantine art and an invaluable treasure of Russian cultural heritage. The iconographic type of this masterpiece is Eleusa, or the Virgin of Tenderness, which emphasizes the maternal love and compassion of the Virgin Mary towards humanity. Originally created in Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, the icon was first moved to Kiev in 1136 and later to Vladimir in 1155. The icon's journey from Constantinople to Russia reflects the historical and cultural connections between the Byzantine and Russian worlds during the Middle Ages. Measuring approximately 68 cm x 51 cm, the icon is painted in tempera on wood and displays a vertical, upright composition. The Virgin Mary is depicted holding the infant Jesus in her left arm, while her right hand rests on his shoulder, conveying a sense of tenderness and affection. The colors used in the painting are rich and vibrant, adding to the icon's visual appeal and spiritual significance. The icon's portrayal of the Virgin Mary as a loving and nurturing mother resonated deeply with the Russian people, and it became a popular devotional image throughout the medieval period. Today, Our Lady of Vladimir is housed in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, where it continues to captivate visitors with its beauty and historical significance. The icon's enduring appeal is a testament to the power of art to transcend time and connect people across cultures and generations.
