Smolensk Mother of God Icon, rus. Смоленская икона Божией Матери, Smolenskaja Ikona Bożyjej Matieri – one of the most venerated icons in Eastern Orthodoxy. It belongs to the Hodegetria iconographic type with Christ. The Child holds a rolled scroll in his left hand, and blesses with his right hand.
According to legend, the original was created by Luke the Evangelist. This image was brought to Rus from Byzantium by a Byzantine princess (Anna?) in 1046. She was the daughter of Constantine IX Monomachos and came to Rus to marry Prince Vsevolod. Vladimir Monomakh, the son and successor of the princely pair, while still a prince of Smolensk, gifted the icon to the Smolensk Assumption of the Mother of God Cathedral in 1079. Soon after, the icon was considered miraculous. It may have been at that time that it began to be called the Smolensk Icon. The image brought by the Byzantine princess has not survived.
In 1398, the Smolensk Mother of God Icon was transferred to Moscow, which helped spread its veneration over a larger area. It remained in Moscow until 1456, after which it was returned to Smolensk.
