The Savior of Smolensk is the iconographic type of Jesus Christ in which he is represented as the Pantocrator – in a frontal position, with his right hand raised in a blessing gesture and his right hand holding a Gospel book. To either side of Him, are two angels, kneeling in prayer at His feet, are St. Sergius of Radonezh and the Venerable Barlaam of Khutyn. In the upper part of the icon, there is an image of the Old Testament Trinity, flanked by two Cherubim and surmounted by the image of the Holy Mandylion.
