Hodegetrian.

/həʊdiːˈɡiːtrɪə/

Etymology: < Greek ὁδηγητρία (see below).

An iconographical variant of the Virgin and Child in which the Child is depicted on the Virgin's left arm while she indicates Him with her right hand as ‘The Indicator of the Way’ (the meaning of the Greek word). According to tradition the arrangement follows that of a painting originally attributed to St. Luke, but the earliest surviving example is probably to be assigned to the 7th century. The composition was frequently copied in Italy, the Byzantine world, and Russia. Sometimes, in the process of copying, the Child was transferred from the Virgin's left arm to the right and she indicates Him with her left hand, but there is no particular significance in this variant.
