An exact copy of the icon of the Theotokos Arsaniotissa, which can be found in the Holy Monastery of Esphigmenou on Mount Athos. In the beginning, it was located at the port (“arsana” in Greek) of the Monastery, from which it derives its name. On December 6th, 1892, there was a landslide of large rocks from Samareia mountain, which crushed the port. Among the ruins, the only part of the wall left standing was that which protected the icon. When the monks removed the icon, this too collapsed. A fisherman, who was sleeping nearby the shrine to the Mother of God, was also miraculously left unharmed. From that time, the icon of the Theotokos Arsaniotissa was transferred to the main Church of the Monastery where it remains to this very day. Work of ARTIS GILDING AND RESTORING.
