The original of this icon, celebrated on 9 October, takes its name from the Russian rendering of Cherson, the ancient Greek city on the Black Sea. Reputed to work miracles, in 988 the icon was removed from Cherson and “translated” to Kiev. Later it resided in Novgorod and in Moscow’s Dormition Cathedral. — 8″ x 10″
