Moscow, Russia

Commemorated on January 8
The Bari Icon of the Mother of God
This unusual icon was brought to Moscow from the Italian city of Bari on December 26, 1392.  The icon, which formerly stood near the reliquary containing the relics of Holy Hierarch St. Nicholas, became the patronal holy icon of the Great Prince's family, and was installed in the Annunciation Cathedral in the Moscow Kremlin.  Out of the multitude of holy treasures in that Cathedral,  the Bari Icon was particularly venerated.  It was set in a very expensive and precious frame, and was extensively copied. 
 
The last time an inventory of the Cathedral mentioned the Icon was in 1923; its fate since then is unknown.  Currently, one of the copies of the Bari Icon of the Mother of God rests in the Annunciation Cathedral.
