Pimen Mother of God

Posted by: Matthew in Theotokos Add comments

Named for Metropolitan Pimen of Moscow in the late 14th century, who brought the icon from Constantinople to Moscow. The original of this icon was credited with numerous healings after fragrant myrrh came forth from the icon.

This icon was painted for the iconostasis of Holy Transfiguration Antiochian Orthodox Church in Boise, Idaho as a wedding gift to my wife.
