Black Madonna of Częstochowa (also known as Our Lady of Częstochowa), which depicts the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child in a style known as Hodegetria ("One Who Shows the Way"). This specific icon features an ornate metal cover known as a riza or oklad, common in Orthodox Christian iconography.
Key Details
Subject: The icon is a revered image of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a significant religious symbol in Poland.
Appearance: The image is famous for its dark face, traditionally attributed to either age and candle soot or the original painting technique.
Historical Marks: The original icon, enshrined at the Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa, Poland, is noted for two parallel scars on Mary's right cheek, said to have been inflicted by a sword during a 1430 looting. These are visible in the image you provided.
Significance: It is one of the most popular pilgrimage sites and a national treasure in Poland, where the Virgin Mary was declared the "Queen of Poland".
