The Virgin&#039;s head usually inclines towards the Child, who raises his hand in a blessing gesture. In the Western Church this type of icon is sometimes called Our Lady of the Way.&quot;</i></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodegetria" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodegetria" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodegetria</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
