The original orthodox icon of the Most Holy Theotokos of "Vladimir". Copy of an iIcon of 12 century, Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow.

The icon of Theotokos of Vladimir also known as Our Lady of Vladimir, Vladimir Mother of God, or Virgin of Vladimir and "The Vladimir Madonna" - is one of the most venerated Orthodox icons and a typical example of Eleusa Byzantine iconography. The Theotokos (Greek word for Virgin Mary, literally meaning "Birth-Giver of God") is regarded as the holy protectress of Russia. The icon is displayed in the Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow. Her feast day is June 3. Even more than most famous icons, the original has been copied repeatedly for centuries.

Many copies now have considerable artistic and religious significance of their own. The icon is a version of the Eleusa (tenderness) type, with the Christ child snuggling up to his mother's cheek. The current location of the icon in a church building on the grounds of the Tretyakov Gallery. About 1131 the Greek Patriarch Luke Chrysoverges of Constantinople sent the icon as a gift to Grand Duke Yury Dolgoruky of Kiev. The image was kept in the Mezhyhirskyi Monastery until Dolgoruky's son Andrey Bogolyubskiy brought it to his favourite city, Vladimir, in 1155.

Tradition tells that the horses transporting the icon stopped near Vladimir and refused to go further. People interpreted this as a sign that the Theotokos wanted her icon to stay in Vladimir. To house the icon, the great Assumption Cathedral was built there, followed by other churches dedicated to the Virgin throughout Ukraine. In 1395, during Tamerlane's invasion, the image was taken from Vladimir to the new capital, Moscow. The spot where people and the ruling prince met the icon is commemorated by the Sretensky Monastery. Vasili I of Moscow spent a night crying over the icon, and Tamerlane's armies retreated the same day.

The Muscovites refused to return the icon to Vladimir and placed it in the Cathedral of the Dormition of the Moscow Kremlin. The intercession of the Theotokos through the image was credited also with saving Moscow from Tatar hordes in 1451 and 1480. The icon of the Theotokos of Vladimir is sometimes described as expressing universal feelings of motherly love and anxiety for her child. By the 16th century, the Vladimirskaya (as the Russians call it) was a thing of legend.

A pious custom of the church asserted that the icon was painted by St Luke.The venerated image was used in celebration of coronations of tsars, elections of patriarchs, and other important ceremonies of state. As a work of art, the Theotokos is widely regarded as the most important icon produced during the Comnenian period. Scholars believe that it expresses deeper humanity and emotionality than that typical of contemporary Byzantine religious art, and may hint at the style of the lost secular art of the empire.

As David Talbot Rice asserts in the latest edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, "it is of considerable importance in the history of painting, for it not only is a work of outstandingly high quality but also is in a new, more human style, anticipating the late Byzantine style that flourished between 1204 and 1453."

I'm been using this make up remover for years!
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
I’ve been using Neutrogena Makeup Remover for a while now, and it does an amazing job at removing makeup quickly and easily. It takes off everything—even waterproof mascara—without needing to rub too hard. What I really like is how gentle it feels on my skin. It doesn’t leave any irritation or greasy residue, and my face feels clean and refreshed after using it. It’s also super convenient, especially the wipes they’re perfect for travel or those nights when you’re too tired for a full routine. The only downside is that the wipes can dry out if the package isn’t sealed properly, so make sure to close it tightly. Overall, a reliable and effective makeup remover that I always keep on hand!

Not good for sensitive skin
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
Not great for sensitive skin. But great for cleaning brushes or removing makeup if you have nothing else. Left my sensitive skin burning.

Gentle on my skin, tough at removing makeup.
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
I've tried many different kinds of makeup remover wipes in my day, but I've never used these Neutrogena ones. As I was looking for some wipes to try out (as I'd recently used up all the ones I had), I decided to ordered the Neutrogena ones. These packs came very well presented, and were in excellent condition. I appreciate that the wipes were wrapped in a plastic-type wrap, which protected them from the elements. The wipes feel so soft and gentle on my skin; each cloth wipe feels durable, and is great at removing stuck-on makeup. These not only remove makeup very well, but they leave my skin feeling soft and hydrated. I've not had any issues with irritations while using on my skin, and there's also no fragrance to the wipes (which may be of some importance to certain people). I love that these wipes are made from plant-based materials, and they are compostable. The cloths feel durable yet lightweight, and have plenty of essence on each wipe. Additionally, these packs of wipes are convenient got on-the-go purposes. I'm really happy with these Neutrogena makeup remover wipes, and feel they're of excellent quality and value. I feel these are a good value because this came with 2 packs (each with 25 wipes), and one wipe can do a lot. At the time of my purchase (and review), these wipes were listed at around $7.98; I personally think this is a very nice deal, and would definitely consider ordering them again. I also would highly recommend these to others.

Perfect Facial Wipes
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These are great for washing makeup off if, like me, you cannot use soap on your face. They are convenient to use; just pull from the package. They are moist and leave your skin clean and smelling fresh. These wipes do not irritate my skin or leave an oily residue. I have used them for year and always have a pack in my makeup area.
