Iverskaya Russian Mother of God in riza
Russian Mother of God in riza
We are pleased to offer a selection of icons from the village of Sofrino, located just outside Moscow. These icons are high-quality reproductions of beautiful icons, decorated with metallic ink. All icons from the Sofrino factory are blessed by the Russian Orthodox Church.
This icon from Mt. Athos gets its name from the Iveron (Iberian) Monastery. St. Luke is also given credit for this icon. In 1648, it became famous in Russia after Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich had a chapel built for a copy of the icon. According to legend, 365 fathers of the Iveron Monastery held an all night service.
