The master who painted it did not sign his work; he did not believe in taking credit. All we know is that the icon was painted in Constantinople some time shortly before 1131 and given as a gift to the Russian Prince Mstislav Vladimirovich. According to tradition, the image was painted after an icon of the Theotokos done by St. Luke himself. Today, we call this particular iconographic type, the one with the Mother and Child in a tender embrace, Eleussa or Tenderness.
