The Written Icon of the Kazan Mother of God 16х20 cm

The Kazan icon of the Mother of God is one of the most revered. It was miraculously found in 1579 in Kazan, from where it took its name. After the great fire that took place in the city, the 9-year-old girl Matrona in a dream appeared to Pure, who ordered her to find her image in the ruins left after the fire. The icon was soon found in the place indicated by the Mother of God. Since then, this day - July 8, 1579, is celebrated and celebrated annually by the Orthodox Church. On the site where the icon was found, a female monastery was built, and the girl, who appeared to the Most-Holy Theotokos, became the first nun in it.
