The Savior of Smolensk is the iconographic type of Jesus Christ represented as the enthroned Pantocrator – full figured with his right hand raised in a blessing gesture and his right hand holding a book of Gospels. He is flanked by the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Baptist and surrounded by the Apostles. To either side of Him, kneeling in prayer at His feet, are Saint Sergius of Radonezh and the Venerable Barlaam of Khutyn.
