The above image is The Trojerucica (pronounced Troyeruchitza) Icon, or, Our Lady with three hands , is the most famous icon in the Serbian Monastery Hilandar, Mt.Athos. There are some 30 wonderful icons in Hilandar.
St. John Damascus, the famous religious poet, who lived in 8th century, served in the castle of Siria's Calif. He was accused as an enemy of state and his right hand was cut off as a sentence. He was a man of great faith and with love for Mother of God. He asked calif for his hand and prayed in front of this icon for healing and he was healed. He made a silver right hand and put it on the icon as a symbol of his miraculous healing. He also gave the icon its name.
Legend says that this icon was made by the Evangelist Luke, and, since he knew the Mother of God personally, it shows her true likeness.
